I worked one JA last evening, 0045Z or so.  Alaska is already coming in.  So 
you should have a nice Pacific/JA opening today.

Darn!

I'm sorry I missed it!

Wonder if 10 will be open to the west later this afternoon, so we can work a
bunch of JA's?

Now at 200 QSOs.  Ten meters was in fine form this morning, with stations
from 28.3 to 29.0.  Should be similar tomorrow morning unless another
geomagnetic disturbance hits.  I don't think we will see 210 meter
conditions like this in this contest for several years.

Have fun, Lloyd.

Not going to be a serious operation here either, due to other obligations
and commitments.  However, I plan to get on and play in the contest at least
a bit if possible.

If nothing else, I hope to get a few new countries.

53 QSOs so far, running the FT950 barefoot.  This is not planned to be a
serious operation, but I hope to have some fun.  Already worked stations in
much of Europe and in Turkey and Asiatic Russia on 20.  Operation so far has
only been from 0315 to 0420Z.

Regarding the W1AW/0 operation from Kansas, and the W1AW/7 operation from
Washington State, I haven't worked them yet, but am hoping to snag them this
week-end.

However, I suspect the ARRL Int DX SSB contest might put a bit of a crimp in
that plan, unless I can find them on CW.

Will just have to wait and see.

Speaking of the INT DX Contest, I'm hopeful that band conditions will be
good, so we can all work some gud DX.

Hopefully, we can all report on any interesting contacts we've been able to
make as the week-end progresses.

Absolutely! Great signals and easy to find. I'm all caught up, although I'd
like to work Guantanamo on CW if they're doing that. Washington state was
booming in today on 15. 73, lou  WA3MIX Lou Kolb Voice-over Artist:
