150W, 160 inv-L, 80 inv-L, 40-10 vertical, all S&P.
Nice quiet low bands the first night. Went to topband late (0600Z) and only for
a bit over an hour, but it sure was hot at that time -- much better than CQ160
weekend, when most of the DX did not hear me at all.
Thunderstorm QRN obliterated 160 and 80 the second night, and while 40 wasn't
too noisy, the condx started to stink a couple hours after sunset. Went to bed
early.
15 opened to western Europe Sunday morning, but my ant is especially bad on
that band and I could only work a few.
10 finally popped open to the south late Sunday afternoon, with some big
signals from the Caribbean basin, but not very many of them.
CU from K5MDX (M/2) in the phone part. 73,
