Comments:

This year propagation was disturbed - magnetic storm first night, A=13
progressing slowly to A=20, so each km to the south count 10-times.
It was frustrating to hear 9A1A of 9A1P or E7DX being only some 600 km to the
south running (on more bands) when we heard just NOTHING. Probably similar
could say ES5Q from ES5TV megastation hearing us working and they heard
"NOTHING". Of course there is no comparison to the stations in the
west-southwest.....

Our poor 160m doing was not our gear but our bad organization... we should have
there probably 10 mults more, but well, it would make no difference.

I checked most of the W6 worked on 10m and most are from San Diego area, few up
to LA - only one north of it !! Fist day over 25 W7 - all from AZ. Simply no
propagation towards northern west coast on 10m from OK.

We had fun and that is all it is. 
Will hear you all in WPX once more.

73 !
