Comments:

What a difference a few months make compared to June. No Es, F2 or tropo from
Bermuda in the Sept. contest. I stayed at Ed, VP9GE's QTH. Hurricane Fabian had
knocked off the power, so I ran the contest "Field Day" style with generators.
Only QSOs were on 6M via "scatter." 

High points were working W2SZ/1 on Sunday(who I missed in the June contest) and
having a "3 per hour" run Sunday evening on scatter. K1TOL had a great signal.
This was after having a nice dinner at the "Lobster Pot" restaurant in downtown
Hamilton with my family celebrating my son's 22nd birthday.

Some stations heard but not worked on 6M:  W4IY, W8GG em78, K1WHS, K1JT, K1SIX,
W2FU, K3YTL and N2PA. Believe W2FU heard me calling on CW, he would qrz, but
could not complete. At 1846 utc on Saturday heard a station giving grid "EN19"
on 50.150 ssb. That was the best DX heard. Best DX worked AA4ZZ em96, K1TOL fn44
and WA2BPE fn12. Alot of work for only a few contacts. Ran the IC-706MII at 100
w to a 5 el M2 yagi at 20 feet. Impressive to see how quickly the hard working
people of Bermuda are recovering from Hurricane Fabian.
