I don't think it will turn into a spotting contest. It's too much fun to have
it the other way.
I did check the map on KST for locations of E clouds. This did help. I did look
at the chatter, but it wasn't of any help.

heh... I believe I may have a chance to score a wee bit higher up the
Big Operator chain this time, because I did not burn operating time by
fiddling with a cellphone, futzing with APRS, tweetling or updating
pages on the interweb.
I j u s t o p e r a t e d m y a m a t e u r r a d i o.
If/when it finally turns into naught but a Spotting Contest,
I'll be finished with it.
