I only was able to put in a little over 3 hours, SOSB 40 QRP, and spent much more of that time calling through the QRM than actually making contacts. No AF Q's at all and only 3 each SA and EU (UA, I and CU2). At least it was a good excuse for firing up the K2 (#3272, 5 watts to a multi-band vertical). Last year I operated 40-10 meters and had better luck with DX on 40 meters than this time. Until I built the K2, I never would have thought that working EU on 40 from the West Coast with 5 watts and a simple antenna was possible.
