I was going to post something about my experience this weekend. I logged a
few short contacts and went to bed and got up at 1:00 AM Eastern time which
was about 5:00 UTC. I head only local guys and there were not even any
good spots for anything out to the west coast.
After about an hour I just gave up as I just did not receive anything that I
had not already worked. I was really hoping to work some west coast but it
was not in the cards I guess and now I know why.
Cheers
