Comments:

Before SS Phone I had to track down a hum in my recorded CQ,
and some Broadcast station interference reducing my hearing 
on 80m. Was able to solve both with minutes to spare.

It seemed like a really slow start. After a couple hours that  
seemed normal, until an hour after sunset when 20m died. Then 
just really slow on the low bands.

I started Sunday morning w-a-y before sunrise. Moved up to 
15m and 10m as soon as the sun came up. Finally had a couple 
of good runs on 10m. The second radio was busy tuning about  
for needed sections. Finished the sweep before noon with ME, 
DE, WNY and NNY. Then it was tune and call. Find a hole and 
CQ until I lose the freq. Had a good run on 20m right at 
sunset, then a slow walk to the finish.

Really great operators out there: listening well, patient, 
and providing lots of contacts, Thanks!
