Comments:

If you think conditions were bad where YOU were, you should try it from up here. It was awful! After raging for most of the week, the aurora died out a bit Friday evening for the start of the contest but returned a few hours later and shut all the bands up tight. 20m was wobbly all day Saturday with only the strongest stations making it through. Late Saturday night 40m opened up a bit and I worked a handful of Caribbean stations in the wee hours. I was hoping for 80m to come up too and even heard a few stateside stations but everything died out again around East coast sunrise. Sunday was just as pitiful as Saturday was. At one point I decided to do something more pleasant and turned the radio off for a few hours to file my taxes. By the time the contest ended Sunday evening the shack was also very clean and vacuumed...
