Remarks: Thanks to the Russian Centr Radio Club (RCRC) for sponsoring the 
contest and to all the stations that I had the pleasure of working in the 
contest.

Conditions at the start of the contest were okay.  Europe was coming in 
strong on twenty meters until 0630Z when I went to bed.  Back on the air on 
15 meters around 1200Z and worked off and on (family committments) until 
1430Z.  Returning to off and on operation at 2200Z the bands and activity 
had dropped way off.  Not sure what happened, but it was slow and long 
between QSOs.  Still it was fun and interesting to see how the reduced 
propagation is affecting contesting.  Now off to the beach for a short 
vacation.


         73,
