Comments:

IC-7610, Titan III, Spiderbeam @ 50ft on an aluminum Spiderbeam mast.

I sort of expected the openings to last longer with the higher MUF - EU seemed
to open late and closed early, though it was slightly better on Sunday. 
Similarly JA; I only had a few callers Saturday night but Sunday was much
better.  Unfortunately the band shut down as darkness fell Sunday.  Another 15
minutes of propagation likely would have netted a couple Asia mults.  Really
good widespread Es Friday night and decent Saturday evening into W5.

I felt loud with just the Spiderbeam.  I will have "temporary"
antennas for a couple years until the house is built.  Putting the tower up
first would be very bad for optics with my wife, though I am sure she
understands at this point.

711 Europe, 93 Asia.  141 DLs(!), 89 JAs
88 DXCC, 70 W/VE/XE (including AA7JV/MM in R2)

Thanks for the Qs!
73, Dave N2NL
