Comments:

I'm eternally grateful to N2QV and WU2X for the continued use of their amazing
contest station located in New York. This time I operated the station remotely
from my home in Arkansas.  The remote setup was rock solid for the entire
contest.  

Antenna: 4 Square with 144 1/4 wavelength radials per vertical
RX Antennas: Phased 1,000' beverages spaced 400' pointed at Europe, 800' single
wire beverage pointed at Caribbean, 720' single wire beverage at Oceania. 
Amplifier: SPE 2K-FA- 1500 watts out     

The first night was a struggle, at least from an east coast perspective.  Even
with massive fire power, it was difficult to raise the attention of the
hundreds of Europeans that packed the band.  Despite what felt like woeful
conditions, 79 EU stations still made it into the log the first night. 
Thankfully, a slight improvement in the K Index for night two seemed to be just
what the doctor ordered.  The EU run started around 0100z and continued until
0700z.  Using diversity reception with the K3 helped to pull out every last
European caller.  224 Europeans were worked on night two for a total of 303 EU
stations for the entire contest.

IK2DFZ and SP8GQU were both interesting contacts.  IK2DFZ was extremely loud,
almost as if he was operating from the east coast of the U.S........
SP8GQU was not nearly as loud but he called me 1.5 hours after his sunrise,
another head scratcher.  

Never heard a KP4, NE, or VE5.  I heard A44A calling CQ but he couldn't hear
me.    Also heard 7Z1SJ in a Caribbean pileup but couldn't raise his attention
either.  Thanks to VK3IO and JA5DQH for being my only Australian and Japanese
multipliers  I'm looking forward to putting in an all band effort for ARRL DX
CW.  Congrats to all of the operators that put forth their best effort.   

73,
Kevin, N5DX
