Garry,

The 29.500 was I.  While tuning the antenna I had punched in 29.5 and 
forgot to move up 1 Hz.  I thought I was sending QRSS when I had to 
leave unexpectedly for a few hours.   Later I found I had left the 
control in carrier mode.  At approximately I started QP2H which ran  
until 1230UT.  I see there were again no decodes.  Even from David who 
is only 260 miles away. 

Dex,
who is not convinced OP2H is very productive
