[CQ-Contest] Band condx - 10/15 for FD 2003

[Chuck]

Anyone have any observations on band conditions for FD weekend?  From our
location (MDC, 900 feet AMSL, trapped 80-10M vertical, CW only op)  we
observed the following as we checked the bands in morning, afternoon,
evening, and overnight.

80 - later afternoon - morning (right before D/E layers fattened back up)
was about average props from MDC
40/20 active and busy the entire time
15 - only heard sporadic stations, only worked 30 folks or so on Sunday
10 - Quieter than a receiver with the antenna disconnected and the gain
turned down.

Understand prop forecast had active geomag field and VHF was active.

looking for other observations/anecdotes
