Mike:

I tried looking for you earlier on 80 meters about 8 o'clock Eastern time,
but I think the band had already shortened up too much here.

Later today, I'll be playing in the Michigan QSO Party, so good luck on
whatever band you end up using.

Subject: My 80 Meter W1AW/5 Run This Morning

Howard was my second contact.

I stopped about 5 minutes ago, after working 2 or 3 locals who came down
from the morning 75 meter net to get the contact.

My total run was 23 in about 90 minutes.

That's slow, but most of those guys wouldn't have had the contact otherwise.

The distance ranged from ten miles away to Montana and Washington state.

I worked as far north as Howard and Montana, plus the west coast, but
nothing east of Alabama.

My next run will be from 1700 - 1800 UTC today.

It will either be 10 or 15 meters, with 20 as the backup.
