A mega Sunday! Friday and Saturday weren’t too bad but Sunday! Back to the old days. Normally I would have increased the number of reported contacts to cut down on the space used but I thought it looked good for comparison purposes.
FY5KE ( French Guiana) was top for 3 days with 3D2ZK (Fiji) for 2, EW1I (Belarus) and AM500MMM (Spain special) both top for 1 day.
This is Joanna, 3D2ZK. Check out her QRZ.com page!
AM500MMM is interesting. It commemorates the 500 th anniversary of Magellan sailing round the world.
The QRZ.com page is most informative in Spanish and loads of other languages. Excellent.
Friday, Joe, G3ZDF, worked KP4JRS, HC2TIC, CT1BFP and heard PJ2BR, KG4IYS and CO3JR.
He adds, “All of these on FT8 after 23.00 local time”.
Yes, 10m does odd things like that now and again when most folk have given up and QSYed.

Sun: FARSIDE SUNSPOT: NASA's STEREO-A spacecraft is monitoring an active region on the far side of the sun. The probable sunspot will turn to face Earth later this week, ending a string of spotless days. A CME emerged from the region on May 2nd and 3rd, so it really is active.
Stoke lost yet again and our star (only?) striker went off injured early in the match. We lost 0 – 2 to QPR. Bournemouth next Saturday. They are currently in the playoffs and will want to stay there.
Cricket: IPL has called off the current competition owing to Covid cases amongst players. Wow, serious stuff. Several players are now stranded as many countries have banned flights to and from India
