Comments:

Two zones were missed. Had heard KH6LC two times, but was not able to break
into the pileup. The conditions to that part of the world does not seem to be 
good this time. No stations from zone 34 were spotted.

It is quite interesting to see that a number of times the heavy pileup station
came back very quickly, while some stations were called systematically in a
number of periods without luck. These are mostly stations from zone 35, while
they are working the US. This looks logic, since the EU is coming to them
at 90 deg. of beam. It looks like that S9 signals in EU in this are not 
a guarantee that EU is strong enough on their side. Quite the same is valid
for some central America region. In Saturday evening when the band was mostly
closed, just some strongest signals were coming through, like PZ5X with good
S9.
An hour or so was not enough to get through, however, managed to work that
mult in Sunday evening.

Contrary to that, e.g. 6Y1V was loud at +20 or +30 at the moments and just one

call was needed. The loudest signals spotted in ctest were in Sunday morning
at 07.00 gmt from OH8X and RA3CO, both at +60 using pream 1 (not preamp 2).

Just 7 VKs and 5 ZLs this time and they were mostly short pass, 3 VKs and 2
ZLs
only long pass. 48 VKs and 19 ZLs are in log for the ssb part.

The best hour was Sat 15.00 with 139 qsos and 6 new mults.
In Sunday afternoon there was continuously a strange carrier coming to location

here from 310 deg. direction. It looked like a wide band hum, sweeping from 
14.000 all to 14.050, strength S9, clearly recognizable on spectrum analyzer.
It was the first time spotted something like that, before that time and Sunday
evening looked clear.

Thanks for all calls and
73s de Marko, S50K
