    This weekend. I won't be able to give it a serious effort but I plan on giving it a shot. We will see if the contest opens holes in otherwise poor propagation. CU in the test

    Thanks for the QSO, Jerry!

    The band was wide open to the NW and many western states from Arizona last night. Reeled in a few stations from the midwest too.

    Hoping for some good propagation the rest of the weekend.

    73 to all,
    Mike

    Mostly ground wave in state contacts for me so far. I did make a couple up into the North East earlier but still waiting for the league to switch on the propagation machine for the most part.

    I worked two of the states I needed, CO and SD. Nine to go.

    It's 2:50PM Saturday. I can hear few domestic stations compared to earlier in the day. I'm hearing few Brazilian stations.

    I'm watching the spotting networks like a hawk for states I need. When I tune to some spots, I just can't hear them. I'm sure the spots are valid, but propagation is weak.

    Down here in Mobile, Ala., the noise level has been around S-6 all day. I did hear a couple of weak stations in the N.E. & 1 here in Ala. around 1600-1700z, but, NOTHING since.:(

    Yesterday evening a couple dozen Q's--all OR, CA and AZ. Listening off and on today not a peep even on CW. Maybe later this afternoon. Ah for the decades past where in the morning on 10 it was EU and AF and this time in the afternoon tons of JA's

    Lots of CW here on the east coast but they are WAY too fast for me!
