I need to formalize my log, but a rough count has 145 QSOs from 18 stops, 9 stops on Saturday and another 9 on Sunday.  I never felt that we experienced any good/great conditions nor any morning tropo, it was pretty much brute force forward scatter propagation except for the rain scatter late Sunday.  I think that tropo DX was to AF4JF first thing Sunday morning EN42bm <> EM49hq for 318 km.  From the same spot we also worked the gang in EN35rj for 324 km.  Signals were generally weak.  The longest DX was to K0AWU on rain scatter Sunday evening, EN33sq <> EN37ed for 395 km.  Bill had a nice S9 + some signal on RS SSB.  Maybe 19 different unique calls worked.  I know my system needs some attention as the output power is down, yet another Winter project !   Many thanks to those 19 unique stations for all the Qs, a longer report later when the log gets formalized.  73, Jon
