Default 3Y0X

Last night was a good night.

Managed to land 'em on 80 & 40 CW, and then on 40 SSB for my first phone
QSO with the island.

The pileups were a lot better-behaved in all three places. (40CW had
been a madhouse most of the week) On 80 it was nearly perfect.
Apparently most of the lids:

- were asleep
- were jamming somewhere else (30m?)
- finally managed to burn out their finals (we can only hope)
- were too busy participating in the Disease Discussion Net
- thought the station calling CQ on 3523 was K3YO & not worth messing with

I see there's some RTTY activity showing up - maybe???

(a few folks reported 'em on 10 meters late yesterday morning but not
even a hint here.

ARRL.org reports the guy on the Space Station worked them - on 2 meters...)
