I worked about the same stations on 222 MHz  as WZ1V  snagged this evening.  KA2ENE(FN13)  and I managed a trifecta by working on three modes: FT8, CW, and then SSB.  I heard KA3FQF/r in FN29. He was CQing on FT8 but I could not raise him.  I also copied N4QWZ  (EM66) on meteors while he was trying with Les, N1SV. My best distance worked was K3SK (FM07) at 575 miles but we needed Q65 to do it.  WA3EOQ (FM09) was very weak but rather steady, so it was an easy contact other than he was barely audible up here. I did also work WB2VVV who was portable near Waterville Valley in NH. I also worked WA1LWC in FN42 for (I think) 24 stations. Things really slowed down after 9 PM 0100 UT. I didn't stick around and headed home.  Lots of folks on from other areas and all were having fun.  WQ5S, KF0M KY4G, K9MRI and a slew of others were all in there making noise. Thanks to all who got on.
