(in forever) at 1900 hrs with VE3TU in ONN. I think this is also my best SSB
finish in LP - things were really cooking. 

Sunday slowed down a bit as there was S7 noise on both 10 & 15 so I had to really dig hard (and gave up on a few to complete the QSOs.  I knew that things had changed because the LOUD Q classes from the start were not there on Sunday.  If I was having a REALLY difficult time pulling out info, 90% of those needed to not give me their precedence - it WAS  a Q!

Somone else mentioned that there were a record number of NTs on - even got called by our oldest standby Jay - VY1JA.  Hope he is on more now.

I stayed IN THE CHAIR till my Saturday Sleep time, and after starting Sunday morning I was there till 0300 finish. This really helped but boy can I feel it today.

WN6K, Paul
