Comments:

I decided to try QRP again, but assisted this time. Elecraft K3, 5 watts. TA-33,
80m dipole, and ZS6BKW doublet for 40m. 100% search and pounce.

I was very pleasantly surprised by how good 15m was on Saturday. On Sunday the
15m opening was much weaker. Most of Sunday was spent looking for traces on the
waterfall bandmap that didn't have grey (already worked) call signs beside them.
Pretty slow going, so I took the afternoon off to watch the Blue Jays beat the
Yankees. I copied some nice DX, but being QRP did not have much chance of
working the rarer ones once they had been spotted. My own best DX contacts were
4X, UA0 and JA.
