Topband: what happened to SP

[Goldtr8 (KD8NNU)]

I was going to post something about my experience this weekend.   I logged a 
few short contacts and went to bed and got up at 1:00 AM Eastern time which 
was about 5:00 UTC.   I head only local guys and there were not even any 
good spots for anything out to the west coast.

After about an hour I just gave up as I just did not receive anything that I 
had not already worked.   I was really hoping to work some west coast but it 
was not in the cards I guess and now I know why.

Cheers
