Comments:

15M was the money band here. 10M was open, but there wasn't much activity. I
tried to run there a few times, but it just didn't happen.

After the 1st 5 hours I had 602 QSOs in the log and I thought I was a contender,
but I couldn't find a hole on 40M and lost it.

My highlight was during a run Sunday afternoon high in the band on 20M. I had a
relatively quiet frequency and a good run going. Then a ragchew QSO starts up
.25 khz below me. I told them the frequency was in use, and got the expected
abuse from those who think they own a certain frequency at a certain time.
However, I was REALLY loud and I alternated CQing between my original frequency
and about .5 khz higher, so I was working guys and the ragchewers had a problem
with their ragchew. They found a better frequency after a few minutes, even
though they swore it was their frequency and they wouldn't leave.
