   Claimed score is 27297 on 235 total Q's and 81 mults.  
    Band-by-band counts:
    50    78Q's x 22 grids
  144    75   x    20
  222    32   x    14
  432    40   x    16
  902    10   x      9   

    Quick impressions:
    Enhanced conditions on the higher bands to the south on Sat. 
aft/evening.   Many stations that were S5 or S7 on 144 were 
20-40 over on 222 or 432.   Noticed this with W9FZ/R in his 
first grid, especially.   
    Very strong activity in ILL.   Good activity in S WI, esp. Sat.    
Continue to notice multiple new call signs -- very good trend.  
Sure hope this trend spreads to other areas.  
     Activity, band conditions and weather all worse on Sunday.      
160 Q's made in 10 hours of opping Sat. and only 75 in 10 hours 
on Sun.   I pulled the plug at 2230Z Sun.
