Comments:

I planned to operate about 6 hours, but the bands were pretty good, with 10 and
15 providing more QSOs and mults than expected, so I put in some extra time.
About 75% of the QSOs were S&P. I probably was able to work about 80% of
the stations I called while S&P, some with a lot of repeats. I was able to
CQ productively on 20 and a bit on 40. I was able to CQ with answers on 10 and
15, but the rate was much better S&P so I gave that up. Only 1 QSO from
CQing on 80. Of the 20 or so stations I called on 160 I was able to work 2
easily and 2 with a lot of effort on the part of the other station-thanks W9RE
and NA8V. Good activity. I had 2 ND stations in a row call in while CQing on
40. That must be a first for me. Thanks to all who pulled out my signal.
