I really like the Classic Radio overlay with the 24 hour limit and don't 
feel near as 
tired as doing 36 hours in the chair.Normally I run in an assisted 
category, so 
working non-assisted and not knowing where all those super DX stations are 
is 
the downside.
With all the solar activity and the flux at 217,  great conditions were 
expected and the sun delivered. 10 meters was great all  weekend as well as 15 
meters. The weekend was all S&P except for a couple  of good short runs; one 
of which included 21 stations in Japan. I could not be  heard in the Middle 
East and Asia. I could hear the A71 on 3 bands but could  not work them. My 
score and QSO total was down was down about 6 percent from  last year 
although I did end up with one more mult. Near the beginning of one  of my hour 
breaks there was an X class flare; and, it was the first time I  watched the 
1 minute refresh graph of the flux as it rose into the X class  area, 
leveled off and then declined. 

It's always amazing to see stations on 10 meters  above 28.8 MHz and 
although I worked non-assisted, there were great DX  contacts - 4Z5ML, A65BP, B4L, 
BY2AA, C37NL, GJ2A, J3A, J42T, J69MV, JV5A,  JW5E, MD2C, S0S, S79K, T88HZ, 
TF3CY, UP2L, V47JA, YE2C, YS1/NP3J and ZD8X to  list a few. Lots of loud JAs 
and notable misses included A71, HZ, DU, AH0 and  AH2. 

Thanks to the CQWW committee for sponsoring this  great contest and thanks 
to all the folks around the world whose contacts  filled my log.  

Best - Jere
