Comments:

Operating time was limited this year.  Mother-in-law had hip fracture 
surgery at
age of 95 on Saturday morning.  We had a house full of out-of-town 
relatives for
the weekend.  I had to play (and lose) a tennis match on Sunday afternoon.
Missed only NT and never heard one.  Operated through the solar flare 
with no
QSOs form 1715 to 1739 UTC. Already knew I couldn't use up my 24 hours.

FT1000MP, Alpha 78, QSK 1 kw output, TH6DXX, dipole and zepp for 40 M, 
inverted
vee dipole for 80.  Still need to do some antenna improvement on 40 M. 
Didn't
fee l strong there at all.  Short skip was great on Saturday, but bands went
long earlir on Sunday.  80 M was probably more productive than it has 
been for
me in past years at W4AN.  Probably because I hadn't worked as many 
stations on
40 M before going to 80.

Thanks for all the QSOs and hope to work you all again on SSB.

73,


John, K4BAI.
