Comments:

Conditions, in general, made this a brutal slog.  I operated a few hours here
and there, but it was tough to work EU on 20 on Saturday - weak signals under
the East Coast CQ machines, combined with the aurora.  I had more repeats and
requests for fills than usual. 

The little 10 meter opening on  Saturday was a pleasant surprise and I was able
to pick up a new country on 80 meters thanks to RM0F's good ears!  (I just have
a dozen more on 80 to get QRP 5BDXCC!)

I had hoped to pick up some more Qs and mults on Sunday afternoon but that was a
lost cause: no EU on 40, 20 was a zoo and there was nothing new on 15.  So I
shut things down to make the pain go away!

Thanks again for those that pulled out my weak, fluttery signal!
