What, did Connecticut secede from the Union already?? Didn't hear 
even one of them, as well as the expected-to-be-missing NE, ND, and 
RI; there were at least a dozen Mainers, however! The ONE MN station 
I heard flatly refused to answer me; I must have stomped on his toes 
in some pileup at some time. A major surprise was when the band 
suddenly opened to Europe and Africa from the west coast after 07Z 
Saturday night; G3TXF was louder than I've ever heard him even on 80 
or 40. A very pleasant surprise was working JT5DX on my first call. 
In fact, I worked a lot of schtuff on a single call that made me 
wonder whether I actually had a fullsized vertical instead of the 
49-foot sloping wire in a pine tree and barefoot FT991A that I was 
actually using.
