Saturday was a sack of rocks.........
For the first 4 hours of the contest I was K0NR's private rover.
Worked Bob from DM68, DM67, DM77.  Then, at 2200, I worked my
first "other" station: AB0YM/r.  I was getting REAL discouraged...

Sunday went WAY BETTER.
Best distance was probably FM07.  Only DX was XE2S, DL48 on 50.117.
Shortest was ~2 miles: DM77 to AB0YM/r, DM87.

The best two hours of 6M Es occured (thankfully) while I was in DM87.
I think I was in a 'sweet spot' out in DM87 on Sunday.  I believe I had
more 6M "wow!" contacts to the east than the N. Colo. ops, even as 6M
was wide open to the west coast.

I know I made a few folks happy when I was in DM87.  I heard a lot of
"... sending an SASE ..." comments -- which is the main reason, I guess,
that I bother to sit in a 108 degree vehicle for hours on end.

Yes, Saturday was simply the s***s.
