Well, you got further west than me.

My western-most contact was western Colorado.

It was a fun contest for sure.

Now I know why people like 160 so much.

Just wish I was younger and could stay up all night both nights of the 
contest, and not regret it for a week afterwords.  (grin)

Glad you guys had fun this weekend to.  I worked maybe 130 stations,
everything from New Brunzwick to Arizona.  It's my favorite contest, because
it really tests your receiver.
It was interesting I worked North Carolina an hour and a half after sunrise.
The band also opened later than for the December contest, which makes sence.
I don't like ssb contests much.
