Comments:

Thank you for the contacts! I was glad to work you and 
support the contest. From San Francisco, I operated the 
station in Palmas, Puerto Rico on RemoteHamRadio.com 

I skipped the evening start of the contest, since I had not 
seen 10m propagation from Puerto Rico after 20Z or so. I made 
my best guess and got on at Sunrise plus 3 hrs (14z), and on 
my first diddle was called by Don AA5AU. I worked another 
dozen, then tried CQing to Europe and checking European spots, 
but no luck. Best I could do was EA8 and ZS6. I took an hour 
off to let USA propagation build, but when I came back the 
10m band had closed. For the rest of the day I only heard 
and worked a weak handful of stations. Not helped by the flare 
at 1755z. Well, that's 10m...

I also had some noise problems making copy difficult. I had a 
tough time with the close-in stations FG and FS. 

See you next year!
