Comments:

You had'da be a contester to enjoy this  one.  First - the station worked 
like a
charm; but, mother nature and  the propagation gods were nasty. Worse score 
for
NAQP from this  station.  Hoped for 15m and 10m, nothing on 10m and kept
checking  15m.  Finally heard some noise and thought o'boy!  Worked a CA;  
then
called and was jumped by about 15 stations, all CA.  One said,  the only 
East
Coast worked was GA and FL.  Late on 20m an AK fellow  said nothing ever 
heard
on 15m.  About 7pm a large lightning storm  worked its way through so off 
went
the rig, unplugged antennas and went for  long dinner break.  Started back 
up on
20m and the rain sounded like a  freight train on the beam and 40m and 80m 
were
filled with QRN.  Was  pointed North late and was called by a HB9 who 
wanted to
chat (only Europe  that ever called); then was called by a very loud HI3 on 
the
back of the  beam for my only other NA country.  Things quieted down some  
late;
but, by then it was too late.  I think the weather and noise  kept a lot of 
the
casual folks off 80m and I didn't even try 160m.   Quit at midnight with 8.5
hours.

Thanks for all the Q's, lots of 2  and 3 band folks.

Best - Jere
