Hi All, I didn't get on until 9pm local time but made 9 QSOs in 7 grid squares. My longest QSOs were with VE3KU in FN03 and W3SO in FN00. The band seemed to be popping open for short periods to my east. I heard K3TUF, K1RZ, and K2ERG but couldn't make the QSOs. It was fun to try. My 222 setup is an M2 5WL yagi at 64ft with 120w in the shack. I don't have a mast-mounted preamp. I am planning to be on for the 440 sprint next week. Thanks to K9JK and W4SHG for sponsoring these activity nights! 73, Ron (W8RU).
