I got on for about 2 hours after local sunset here.
Band was very quiet as predicted.  Lots of east
coast stations worked.  Also, the VE3's were out
in force as usual.  Only "DX" was KV4FZ, who
was easily worked on the first call.  The
activity dropped off after 0400Z and I shut down
after about 75 QSO's.  I ran high power and "felt
loud".  Lots of callers at the noise level.
I probably missed a fair number of callers.
Receive antenna was just a 20 foot loop.  I need
to get a directional array going.
