Comments:

Didn't have the time to do an all out effort so I thought I would see how much
pain I could endure.  Was toying with the idea of 10M QRP since the amp was at
the amp doctors, but didn't think I could take that much pain.  Those that know
me know how much I love QRP.  ;-)  Ultimately, I decided to try 10M LP.  Only
heard one AF, CN2R (and it sounded like some sort of wierd backscatter), not a
single EU and heard only two JAs on some funky crooked path.  Unfortunately
neither of the JAs could hear me.  

Highlight was running across ZK2NA on what appeared to be a dead band - we were
a mult for each other.  All QSOs were S&P.  I tried calling CQ several times
without a single contact - that was a bit frustrating.  'Round about 22:30z
Sunday somebody turned the propagation switch off.  I guess the DX Gods were
done for the weekend - and so was I!

CU in the WPXs.
Kelly - N0VD

Now where did I put that Tylenol...
