Comments:

Remote from Japan to my station in Ohio.

This is a nighttime contest for me. With no 10 meter antenna and a 
terrible QTH
(OHIO) for this contest in the best of times, there was zero incentive 
to put in
much effort. Most of my operating took place on the first day when I woke up
around midnight my time and turned on the radio. I also operated a 
little bit
early Monday morning my time hoping to work some JAs at Ohio sunset. (That
didn't happen.)

On Saturday, Western Europe was really loud and most stations could hear 
me on
my 80 meter dipole. French stations were especially loud but German 
stations
were weaker and very little east of Germany was heard.

The US and Canadian west was easy to work. FL is usually strong but only 
a couple
of the biggies were heard and fewer worked. VK and ZL were easy to work.

This contest brought back memories of 10 Meters back in 1958-60 when I 
lived in
Akron, Ohio.   I remember that Arizona stations were really loud back 
then -
like 40 over 9 and I could easily work them on my in-the-attic dipole 
and Viking
Ranger. AZ stations were again really loud this weekend although nobody 
was 40 over.
