Comments:

All quiet until around noon.
Spent the first few hours calling CQ on 144.200, which was maybe a mistake --
was everyone up on 144.260? Talked to some locals, failed to complete with K1BX
and K2HZN. Heard K1WHS loud and clear but figured I'd work him later. Finally
gave up calling CQ and went looking for WHS and he was gone from .270, contest
was seriously depressing. Took a walk.

Around noontime, found K1WHS had moved down to 144.260, worked him and a few
others in the last hour. Had some trouble with mixed-mode contacts but
eventually get it going.

Ultimately:
903: 2Qs in 2 grids
1296: 4Qs in 3 grids
2304: 3Qs in 3 grids

Conditions: not much to say, 903 seemed noisier than usual though.

Best DX was K2SMN in FN20oj, also he had no functioning key, so that was
mixed-mode.

Maybe all the activity was at 6am?
