Comments:

The first two hours were quite a bit of fun with good E-layer openings to W1,
VE1, VE2, VE3, W0, W3 and W9. I was crossing my fingers for decent conditions
on Saturday but that was not the case - so I decided to spend time doing other
things. Managed 3 European QSOs - a far cry from 2011! The big highlight was
hearing BA7IO Sunday morning and XV1Z less than a KHZ apart. At least I heard
them. Both had good signals but unfortunately BA7IO CQed in my face and the XV  pile was too big for my taste ..shucks!

Fun to work so many W6 and W7 stations.
