What a lot of fun!!  10 Meters is almost back!!  Only got 2 skew path
JAs Friday afternoon, but the band improved significantly Saturday.
On 10, EA, G, and F were blasting in, but Scandanavia and Eastern Europe
were much tougher both days.

Great 40 meter conditions to Europe both evenings.  Amazed to work 
60 mults on 40 low power from Oregon.  

86.7% S&P.  35.5 hours.  Close to my PR (set in 1992) but not quite!

73,
Bob W7YAQ
