Comments:

Decided at the last minute to work LP SSB hopeful that the mobiles would
come
up to phone and hand out some multipliers. Many thanks to N4I Sandy (10),
and KB4KBS
Scott (8) in the mobiles for the many QSO's. 40 was the only band good for
me.
Too close for 20 and 75 had a high really noise level, I suppose attributed
to the CME. Calling wasn't very productive
so I spent the majority of the time in S&P.

The QRM'ers are putting more thought into it too. Warbling audio generators
in addition to the dead carriers. Even had one guy tell me I was
transmitting on both sidebands and I was 11 kc wide! Add points for
creativity! FYI, did have a guy look at me on the scope and my signal was
fine on LSB.

I was tickled to work W4AN and I think they actually called me on 40 phone.
Not sure who was at the mic but I was glad to hear them.

Better band conditions are ordered for next year.
