Wasn't that something?

This weekend showed what's possible when the meteor scatter community rallies
around one program/standard...wow!  Big jump in Ms/digital QSOs vs. last year. 
WSJT-X/MSK144 sure is proving to be a vast improvement to WSJT/FSK144.  The auto
sequencing in WSJT-X definitely seems to make the digital modes more accessible
to the casual op.

No substantial enhancement noticed here.  Seemed like things were a little
boosted to the NW and to the S here but not by massive amounts.  May have had
either a 5 minute Es opening to W1 or some really really good short-lived
scatter.  Was fun to surprise K2LIM when calling in on 6m SSB.  :)

No real lulls in activity noted here, despite NAQP and AFC/NFC title
games...although I'm sure it helped that the NFL games were both ugly :)

Best Dx:  (Dead bands?)
6m was W9RM at ~1080 miles
2m was ND0B at ~670 miles
432 was K8CC at ~225 miles
 
See you in the Spring Sprints!
