Comments:

Not too much DX to run, but the rates to NA made it fun. 86 percent of my qsos
were with NA and just more than 7 percent were with Europe. However, I did
manage to work at least one European on each band. Total time on the radio was
22 hours. My neighbors came over and pulled me away for a tasty plate of food
from the grill...the break kind of re-charged me. I took a nap from 3:30 am
local until 5 a.m. local. I kept falling to sleep before that.
