Comments:

This was a personal best for me by 55 QSOs.  I really worked the second radio
hard in the 2200 and 2300 hours Sunday afternoon, and I think that made the
difference.  

I've wondered for a long time whether football games on TV could explain the
rate surges and sags on Sundays.  I took several off times Sunday afternoon,
because the rate just wasn't there.  I thought Sunday evening would be better,
but then I flipped on the TV to find another game starting!  In spite of this,
the rate wasn't too bad so I'm starting to think there may not be much of a
football:rate correlation.  Who knows?!
