Another fun sprint with fair conditions in FN31. Struggled to work a few 
good ones including, FN35,FN13,FN10,FN33, FM28 &FM29. Using a single FO22 at 
60' but do have 1200w of power which has caused a bit of a struggle trying 
to pick out the weak ones that hear me. To all that kept trying and going to 
CW, Tnx. Time for a preamp on tower and new antennas.  Interestingly, I was 
hearing W8JV in Ohio, EN91 most of the evening on CW and even with my power 
was unable to raise him. At times he did have some wild multipath but other 
times very clean Q5 signals. Perplexed I are..hihi

Thanks to all the sponsors and hope to catch you next week on 903 (hate that 
noisy shared band), 1296 and 2304.

Gl to everyone in upcoming contests.
