Hi Steve: Well OM, you whooped me good.
Only 20 Qsos, operated mostly Sat, 2 hours on Sunday.
I missed the first weekend entirely.
Best for me was N3RG 192 miles.
WA3GFZ FM29tk next best at 159 miles.
K1RZ & W2RMA in FN21hb 57 on SSB 148 miles. Fun !
And now I know my gear really works !
Many thanks to Fred N1DPM for fixing my feed.
