From WWA:
WHAT GREAT CONDITIONS ON SATURDAY!!!
Wow, my best SS ever!
10m wasn't good but 15 and 20 were.
I was working the east coast on 40m at 4PM local time!
80m was astounding, how great was that?
NT and NL and W1AW called ME!
Everyone was calling ME!
My very first clean sweep in a CW SS in 32 years!!!
Yaa hoo, huge fun, worked nearly 800 before the night was up.
The level of participation was up; the quality of operating and good-neighbor skills was up, too. Think CW is dying? Nope!
Sunday morning, 6AM local time, 20 & 40 were hot again with good signals. Also, 10m opened up but not too many folks on... but they had great signals, I guess since 15 was good they didn't want to risk reducing the rate by moving.
>>> THEN CAME SUNDAY AFTERNOON <<<
We all know what happened on Sunday and it wasn't pretty, let's not talk about it in front of the children, ok?
