Comments:

It looked like the 1500 QSOs are going to beat after first 24 hours. Not bad in
LP category, even though with 100 watts. Fake

Day 1: Low bands in good shape, nice runs, not rarely of peaks of 150 Q/h. Quite
successfull use of 2nd radio. 20m was also good, but of early closing. 15m - 6
QSO / 4 mults (even more compared to 2020 in SO AB HP: 5 QSO / 4 mults in 2020
:))) 10m did not exist.

Day 2: Started in very similar shape. Till 02:59 UTC.
Then, at 03:00 (yes, it was cut from minute to minute - switch off) rate fell
from cca 70 Q/h to 7 Q/h. Nothing had worked. Neither run CQ on 2 bands, nor CQ
+ S/P, nor precise S/P to made at least some new mults.

Neither 1500, nor 1000 QSOs were beated...

So, we have to hope, that new sun cycle is going to start... sometimes.

Hardware worked perfect. Including fresh temporary installed 2 element 3-bander
for high bands. It was nice reward for few previous months spending with lots of
HW station improvements. Just reconfigure DX Log for ARRL CW on Friday afternoon
and sleep till 0000 UTC, hi.

Thanks to NA guys for nice weekend activity.
