Comments:

I chose SOSB10 in hopes of working ND and SD on 10m, but barely worked any US
stations. Due to out-of-town guests, I didn't start operating until 2230Z
Saturday. Worked a half-dozen JAs by calling CQ after hearing a JA work a SA
station.

Most of Saturday morning was spent tuning the band for 15 minutes, maybe finding
a station or two to work, and then doing something else in hopes that things
would get better in another hour. At about 1900Z finally seemed like enough
activity to stay in the chair until I hung it up at 2215Z. Was pleasantly
surprised to work a V5, a FK and a TX, but never heard Europe.
