By Sat night, after 20 hours of operating, I had only 3 QSOs outside of
Southern California and things were looking pretty bad. But at 17:00 Z on
Sunday, the band finally opened for some E-skip, and I was able to get outside
California and work some single hop stuff for a few hours. Wow!

The last Q I had was with Robert, W5AJ, who had just visited my shack here in
San Diego a couple weeks ago!

I'll bet we all have higher scores next year!!
