>     Missed the first 2 hours wrapping up yard work.
>     Although 20 shut down early, and 40m was terrible Sat early evening, 75m more
>     than made up for it. Went to bed at 0800 when things slowed down, but overslept
>     and woke up just in time for church. Didn't make it back on the air until 1730Z
>     but was on a solid 8 hours then. Nice runs on 40m Sun afternoon. Never did get
>     much going on 20.

>     Wish I had thought ahead to put in a real serious effort. This turned out to be
