You should have stuck around a few more minutes.    About half past the hour 
Gary N5GD and I started chatting and  then he started calling for check-ins. 
He took check-ins for just over an hour and I couldn't hear  any of them 
with the exception of  Junior KG4ITD in Florida.    Strange propagation 
tonight.

73, Steve KW3A
