27 grids, 74 QSOs. Two Es skip QSO: KP4EIT (double hop!) and W4MAY (single
hop). W4MAY and I were apparently calling CQ on the same frequency when the
band opened. I quickly jumped to 50125 and made a CQ announcing the
frequency I was going to and anticipated a pile up... but there was nothing
but hiss coming out of the speaker, and no other signals via E skip on the
band. W4MAY faded out in a few minutes and that was the end of that. Tropo was about average. I did manage to work some rovers which really helped the grid square total. I worked all the nearby grids but never did work my own grid! Hopefully the June contest will be a bit more lively. It was fun anyway. 73, Russ _________________________________________________________________ More photos, more messages, more storage?get 2GB with Windows Live Hotmail. http://imagine-windowslive.com/hotmail/?locale=en-us&ocid=TXT_TAGHM_migration_HM_mini_2G_0507 _______________________________________________ VHFcontesting mailing list VHFcontesting@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/vhfcontesting |
