Yo,
Had fun in the 6m sprint, from W4RX
despite mediocre condx.  A few short 
bursts of Es never really materialized here, 
but added some excitement nonetheless...
Local rain and electrical storms had the 
noise floor sounding like a frieght train for 
the 1st hour or so.  The band quieted down 
later, but condx weren't so hot.  It's always
a pleasant surprise to see the grids 
represented on 6m that we usually don't
find on 2m & up.  Lots of good operators
helped us to find 101 QSOs with the following
33 grids:

EL96    EN82    FM08    FN00    FN32
EM70    EN90    FM15    FN01
EM72    EN91    FM16    FN10
EM89    FK68    FM17    FN11
EM95    FM04    FM18    FN12
EM96    FM05    FM19    FN20
EN80    FM06    FM28    FN21
EN81    FM07    FM29    FN31

Tnx to W4RX for letting me play at his great
station in FM19bb...everything worked great!
Many tnx fer all the action.  Hpe CU in June
from W3IY/R on the eastern shore.
73,
Bill W3IY
