Comments:

I thought I would give 10 meters SB SO (Unassisted) a try before the sunspot
cycle dips even lower.  With the SFI <98 I knew it could be difficult from
this latitude. 

*  Day 1 - no Europeans north of the Mediterranean. All QSO's via the skew path
over southern Africa.  No QSO runs.
   Surprise QSO when JA3YBK called in at 0817 AM local time (13:17 UTC) via
LP.

*  Day 2 - Band was a little better with very short runs to eastern and central
Europe. Missed a few hours midday due to family obligations.

*   There was excellent representation of contest expeditions in the Caribbean
area. It made things much more interesting.  Thanks guys!!

*   Noticed plenty of frequency intruders (AM/SSB/music)in the CW band 
originating from the SW direction in the afternoons.

I had fun and  will see all in the SSB event.
