                 Comments:        

                 I went to Sousse on Friday  aftrenoon after 2 hour 
driving from Sfax. I had a short tour around and a  coffee in touristic El 
Kantaoui Port, then I went to the club to start  preparations.        

                 My idea was to make an audio  recording of the whole 
contest from a remote SDR located in NL. This  will allow checking 
propagation on the other side and see how can I  "optimize" the pileups in 
the future operations.        

Recording the streaming audio  from the Java application required having a 
special software. I found a  great one called SoundTap and I was testing it 
during the week before  and worked perfectly.        

However, audio streaming in  the club was always interrupted after a couple 
of minutes. Then I  realize that internet connection is not stable. Nothing 
to do with that,  I forgot about the idea!        

                 Radio propagation was bad and I was surprised getting 
"unusual" signal levels from Europe. A quick look at 
http://dx.qsl.net/propagation/ Website showed a G2 Level Geomagnetic Storm 
and an R1 Radio blackout. Now it's clear!        

I made some good runs on 20m.  15m was open for about 2 hours or so during 
the day. I made quick QSYs  to 10m to check any sudden opening; it was the 
desert there!        

                 Due to hot weather and some commitments, I could only 
make 21 operating hours out of 36.        

                 Thank you all for the QSOs!
