Topband: Propagation for the SSB test?

[Cecil Acuff]

I know the list is mostly CW enthusiasts but how did propagation seem to you 
guys for the SSB test.  A group of us operated Field Day style... generators 
and the works.  Had a brief opening to EU in the evening and worked one VK 
early in the morning of the first day.  Things didn't seem as good the 
second day with less of an opening to the northeast but did manage to work 
HI with a better opening to the west.  No DX to be found around our daybreak 
both days...bummer.

We're in the deep south and was thankful for no lightning static.
