N03M and WD5R were among the handful of eastern stations I was able
to work early in the night. I don't know what magic they had.
N0NI (normally a beacon station) was missing in action until the band
got back in shape. The early conditions were so bad I actually was
afraid I would miss Iowa. I filled out my multiplier list mainly from
10 PM until midnight local. There were still a fair number of eastern
stations on at 3AM local, although I had already worked nearly all
of them. Thank you night owls.
