Conditions were down from the previous several years.  Some European
stations early and late on Friday, but not much to speak of on Saturday.
Nice West Coast opening on Friday and able to work KH7R in Hawaii. 
Frankly, I didn't concentrate on DX as much as keeping a rate going.
Weird conditions in mid-evening - 0100-0300 - rates dropped off
dramatically but came back up.

Saturday night was boring.  Not much DX, lots of attempted dupes.
Rates were abysmal in the wee hours.

73, Mitch
