Soapbox: 

Missed opening hours on the high
bands such as 15m and 20m however
managed Friday night on 40m before
resuming on Saturday morning.


Experienced phenomenal west-to-east
conditions for the first time on 20m
and 15m into Europe through Saturday
afternoon. Ten meter path was
north-to-south through both days in
contrast 40m was exceptional into Asia
on Sunday morning to include 80m
north-to-south path as well.

Fifteen
and 40m produced both in terms of Qs
and multipliers through Saturday and
Sunday however Sunday high band
conditions were not as noteworthy as
Saturday. Our west-to-east pathway on
Sunday morning on the high bands like
20 and 15m did not remain open very
long neither was it as stable coming
off of Saturday's exceptional
conditions. Ten meters did not open
into major population centers such as
Japan and/or Europe through the
weekend.  

80m dipole listened to the
level of 100 watts while the 3L 40m
listened to the level of 5 watts into
Asia. Additionally, the 6L 20m
listened to the level of 100 watts
while the 6L 15m listened to the level
of 1 watt into Japan. Lastly,
without
a sustained rate into Asia or Europe,
the 5L 10m listened to the level of
100 watts into Central/South
America.

I want to thank John, W6SL
for allowing me to operate his stellar
station this weekend.
