Comments:

I had an impossible work schedule and am burned out on SS in low sunpsot years,
so kind of glad I had an excuse. SS began for me around 14Z and ended at 20Z.
I was able to run just under 100 Q's on 40 in the extra band before activity
dried up, then up to 20 and a very slow run around 14022, so S&P'ed. Around
19Z, tried 20 again and kept up a good run rate until 1950Z during which time
WTX and MS called in to give me 74 sections; then I trolled 15 and found KH7X
and WP3R to top the magic "magnet award" level; 15 sounded pretty good! I was
called by VO1MP with a low NR which was my best mult luck. Missed NT, AK, ND,
and WPa (victim of long skip on 40 and no one on 80 during the day). Sorry to
say, as is usual for bottom of the cycle, the entire PVRC circle was skipping
over on 40, even NC! So, I only worked about a dozen of the PVRC clan.
