Only heard N3BB on 7, absolutely nobody else although I *think* K4BAI was in
there. Even W9RE was superweak on 3.5 and was surprised he came back.

Started NS on 14, total waste of time, zero signals. 7 gradually improved from
SNS lack of propagation but was still pretty poor even for the west coast; only
heard N6RO and W0YK and everybody else had similarly low-NRs those first 5 mins.
Thanks to newbies (for me, anyway) N0AC and K9UIY on 7; also nice to work VA3NR
and W1FJ as "rare" mults for me these past few months. Stuck with 7 till 0345
as I knew 3.5 would be good but I'd bottom out on multipliers, so wanted a few
more on 7 before QSYing. Worked well, with 8 on 7 for the first time in a month
or more. And 13 on 3.5 ain't chicken feed fer me, either. West Coast was barely
audible but band kept getting better; last one I heard was K6VVA but couldn't
grab that slippery Locust  ;o) Had my finger on the bandswitch button after my
last CQ and a split second before I was going to press it for 160, N9NB called
in so wound up not going to 160 at all as quickly grabbed a last few Qs on 80,
9 in the last 5 minutes.

Those short static crashes were really perfidious tonight; they kept taking out
the NR but rarely anything else, noticed several others similarly afflicted. 
;o

80m Inv V
40m sloper toward EU (one these days when there's no EU contest coming up, I'll
rember to swing it around to the NW for NS  ;o)
