Xtof and I took the jitney down to Virginia Beach for an FM26 start
from the Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, where conditions were
great! Unfortunately, by the time we got on the bridge-tunnel a couple
hours later things had quieted down substantially. Seemed like
participation was generally down, very hard to scare up business late
Saturday nite at Cambridge and Ruthsburg, and at Blue Knob sunday
morning.

We had problems on 2 and 3G that need tracking down, and we're still
not getting peak performance from the low band station .. sri to those
calling who we couldn't hear. In spite of all that, we roved a total
of 1007 miles and 12 grids, with the following results:


50         90         90        16
144      139       139        19
222       80        160       12
432      100       200        15
902       61        183         7
1.2        52        156        7
2.3        17         68         3
3.4        10        40          2
5.7        14        56          3
10         11        44          3
Bonus                           12
----------------------------------------
          573       1136       99     total 112464

C U in the sprints!
