Hi All,

Was unable to get on until about 9:30pm local time. 
The station hadn't been touched since the ARRL January
contest (tsk-tsk), but it came to life with a small
amount of work.

Activity came and went but it was fun.  I ended up
with 5 QSOs in 5 grids.  Conditions to the east seemed
to be a bit better than other headings.  I worked FN13
to the east (NQ2O), EM89 to the south (WZ8D), and EN61
to the west (forgot callsign).

My 2m setup is a M2 5WL at 58ft, running about 120w in
the shack.  I don't have a mast-mounted preamp.

I am planning to be on for the 220 sprint next week.

Thanks to K9JK and W4SHG for sponsoring these activity
nights!

73,

Ron (W8RU).
EN82fn
