Hi all,

What a ball! I hadn't planned on entering this one, so didn't start till
around 0900 this morning, and would have been happy with a 100 or so
contacts. This was just a casual operation from me, and I had some good fun.

This morning seemed slow, although there were plenty of mults. 15m was poor,
with only a few signals heard, and 20m was good.
This afternoon, there was a great opening to W6/7 and VE6/7 with some
seriously strong signals from such stations. Bob VE6YR was as strong as many
EU stations!
My only problem was that when most came back to me, I would get an EU
station trying to call me, hence the need for repeats on occasions.
I had quite a few stations call me, then not come back, so maybe propagation
was playing up.


Here is what I managed:
 	 QSOs	Points	DX:	State
160m: 	0	0	0	0
80m: 	0	0	0	0
40m:	7	21	7	0
20m:	196	587	40	0
15m:	17	51	9	0
10m:	0	0	0	0
Total:	220	659	56	0

Total multipliers:	56
Score:		            36904

My log will be on LoTW shortly, so thanks to all for the QSO's and the
points, and see you next weekend!
