Comments:

This was a portable station setup in a tent behind the Monterey Center in
Alameda.  Client demands didn't allow station setup until 21:00z putting me on
the air at 22:30z. I missed the 10-meter opening (if there was one) and caught
the tail-end of 15. From there the MUF dropped rapidly, peaking 20 and then 40,
with a pile of atmospheric noise 90 mins later on each.  160 wouldn't tune and
80 sported "one-way skip. Nevertheless, I managed 152 Q's (65% on 40) in about
6.5 hours of OP time.  Where was the Solar Flux when wee needed it?  
Radio(s):  ICOM 7000 & Kenwood TS-450(sat) for auxiliary chores.
Butternut HF2-V on an umbrella stand with about 8 radials twisted about.
