Comments:

Another contest weekend with too many non-contest distractions.

I checked 160 early (2300Z) to see if by chance there was any activity, and
found the band wide open into Europe.  I just couldn't resist putting the NAQP
on the back burner and working the opening.  Amazing how easy it is to work the
DX when all the US activity is elsewhere ;-)  OH0X (new one) was an honest S9
and pretty much begging.  The old adage of, "If you're on 160, you're not
winning" may hold true, but I can guarantee, you are having fun!

As K1TN mentioned in his posting, this was indeed an odd domestic contest band
breakdown.  160 was pretty hot.

Found K9OM on 10 meters around 1900Z for my only 10 meter contact.

Thanks to all for the QSOs.
