Here are my results. I could not believe 40 meters. It was about the best I have seen it in a contest.
Who knows what the score would be if 10 was hot? Though it was open. Sunday night I worked four
KH6 stations in a row on 10. AK was spotted but I could not hear them. 40 meters Sunday night was
wild. I was going to stop early because I was getting frustrated with the 20 meter conditions but I
checked 40 and it was wide open to Europe, which is unusual because by about "new day" Europe is
going into their daylight and should be closing. It was still open to Europe when the contest ended. I
made my 550th contact just about 5 minutes before the contest ended and said "that's it, I'm happy,
I'm done".
Hope you all had some fun this weekend and were able to put some contacts in the log. If you did please
send them in for MARC.

Felt well enough and enough stamina for a 30 minute slot on this contest. Sunday morning about 10AM local time, 20m seemed ok for me to Europe. Made 19 QSOs in 30 minutes, not terrible considering the circumstances. Nothing to brag about, hopefully my endurance will improve. - KC1SA
