    You pulled me out of the mud Dave! It was a difficult copy both ways. I continued to listen and propagation did improve. Thanks for volunteering your time for this, I enjoyed it.

    @W7UUU it was great making contact with you this afternoon. I enjoyed listening to you work the large pileups. I was making mental notes.

    Had family issues this weekend and didn't get to work the event until tonight. I still got 3 letters. I look forward to the QSL card and getting the full stomp next year.

    Thanks to everyone involved in putting on this event

    I'll take another shot at W7G tomorrow starting at about 1300z on about 14.067 QRP CW from the top of a highrise in Jersey City. Saturday morning was OK for about 45 minutes, then the noise really came up. I hope that people will go to work and not generate so much noise.

    Glad you got him. The spot came up on the cluster as I was reading your post.

    If I know Bigfoot, he will be operating out-of-focus SSTV.

    There are 4 stations working W7O.... I'm not home now so won't be on tonight but I'll be on quite a bit tomorrow as W7O

    And remember folks: You can STILL GET THE CERTIFICATE if you didn't get them all!!! Even working a single letter you can get the pretty wallpaper - you will just only have a "bigfoot stamp" on the letter you worked.
