Comments:

First night very good, even though I operated intermittently. Opening to Europe
so good after midnight that up to 3 were answering my CQ at a time. Since I'm
relatively new to 160 that was a really nice experience. Many mults entered the
log that way since I could not find them or convince them to hear me otherwise.
The northeast Beverage really helped pull through many of the callers from
Europe.

Second night not so nice. Little worked from Europe although several unexpected
mults were worked. I had pretty well worked out what could hear me on this side
of the ocean so it was slow going. Several states/provs (and countries) missed
that could not hear me. I took many short (and long) breaks and did other things
even while CQing to avoid getting too bored. Only reason I stuck it out was in
the hope of great things at European sunrise. No such luck.
