Hi All

I also had a good thrash but only managed to work 22 states and didn't
manage to get to the west coast.  Furthest west could have been Il or Mo.
Heard IA but couldn't raise him - all on CW.

Mike,

Sounds like you had fun.   I had limited time, and only did about 50 S 
and P contacts on SSB.    A nice opening from here  to Europe on 
Saturday (which I missed most of), and  today mostly NA and SA.   It was 
open to your neck of the woods today.  I should have checked CW and looked
for you.
