Here is a copy of my report to 3830.  Sorry for the disjointed words at
the end.  I assume they are misplace from some place earlier in the
text.  I tried to cut and paste without those words, but couldn't seem
to do it except for the whole message.  Have a good week.  Remember that
next weekend will be the WAE CW contest and the MDDC QSO Party.  Band
conditions were excellent on 20 M this morning.  I worked 8Q7HX and
6K5RPZ (Korea) and JI7GGN and heard BV2WT and BV8DA around 1230 UTC.  17
and 15 were open with weak signals at that time too.  Hope band
conditions will be good to Europe next weekend.

Also, don't forget the QRP Spartan Sprint tonight from 01 to 03 UTC on
the usual QRP frequencies.

73,

John, K4BAI.

Comments:

Improved 40 meter antenna since last year, but score was
significantly down.  As
expected, band conditions on 10 were poor, but was glad to get some
QSOs there. 
Mainly west coast and South America plus Colorado and two very
strong Missouri
stations.  Most QSYs to 10 were failures.  Same really for QSYs to
15.  15 was
long and closed early.  Signals were generally weak, but QSOs seemed
possible
with those on the west coast.  Very few backscatter QSOs made.
Heard someweak
east coast stations like VE3KP, but QSYs with them later failed.  20
was vry
good at times and stayed open late with some medium area skip.  I
think there
were no QSOs in the fourth call area except with VA and KU8E here in
GA.
40 went long very early and it was hard to get the close in states.
80 
seemed pretty good except for QRN.  West coast stations were
generally weak, 
but some were workable.  Didn't do very well with 160.  Think
everyone had
QRN problems there.  Glad to work TI5N on 5 bands (heard Jo on 160
too),
XE2MX on 3 bands, FP/K9OT, NH6PR on 2 bands, and non-North American
participants
CX7BY (two bands), DL5MC, YU7GMN, and G3LIK (on 40).  Eastern 
Canada, VE1,2,3,9 and VO1 were well represented, but I heard only
one VE7 (VE7VO
on three bands) and two VA/VE6 stations.  No VE5 or VE4 this time.
Also recall hearing no VT, RI, or NE stations.  Think the other US
states
were worked on at least one band.  Glad to have KO7X in his new QTH
in WY
and N3DXX was very QRV from sometimes-rare DE.  Also AA1LL with his
KB1CZP
call from his place on the Maine coast.
 
and 
were worked on 
Also recall



XE2MD on 
QR
but

seemed
