Just a part time effort.  I had to save my voice, since I have an 8 hour class to teach on Monday.  The voice Keyer  in the IC-7600 was useful, but couldn’t use it all the time... i.e. fills on the weak ones. 

Strange condx on 10 M on Sunday.  No openings from So Fla to the Caribbean until about 3 PM.  I even had ops down south asking what happened, when I finally gave them a FL Multiplier when the path opened. 

Always nice on SSB to run into friends and be able to say “HI” and chat a bit... better than a CW contest I that way.
