Mike:

Well, I did not get the chance to do quite as much operating in the 10-meter
contest today as I would have liked, but did probably about 5 or 6 hours of
operating.

Today, I just did CW via a combination of S and P and c q ing.

My final contest results were:

308 qsos and 104 multipliers for a total score of 116896 points.

I operated a total of 14 hours and 51 minutes for the week-end.

The results will not win me any kind of a certificate, but I sure learned a
lot about 10 meters, and the contest in general.  Will use this knowledge
for next year.

Never did work Mississippi, though.

Tom, I will keep an ear out for you today.

Another possible catch from Mississippi on CW is WB5 E I N. 
He may be on the air again today after lunch.

Mike:

I will look for you tomorrow.

I have yet to work Mississippi, but have worked Florida, 
Texas, Alabama and
Louisiana from here in central lower Michigan.

Using only CW, I have 142 contacts as of now.

I haven't calculated the time, but it is probably about 5 
hours total, as I
had other things going on today and this evening. When I 
left home tonight
at about 01:00Z, Japan was still very strong into my part of 
Mississippi. I
too worked a bunch of Russians this morning, but haven't yet 
heard ZL or VK
signals.


I will play with it a little more tomorrow.
