First full time effort at a VHF contest from my own home station in several
years.  Conditions on Saturday were below par, but improved on Sunday.  No
aurora and no completes on the three meteor skeds that I had; several very
short pings is all.  Had a "sporadic" E open to TX about 2315Z Sat late
afternoon for about 20 minutes.  We had at least two big time rovers out;
N0HJZ/R (Rich) and K0DAS/R (Rod).  Many many thanks to them for keeping things
humming throughout the contest!

CU in the Spring Sprints.   My initial plans are to do some roving.  Anyone
within "normal" range need any grids that are "local" to EN34 on 2, 222, or
432?  If so, and if I travel to those grids, we could sked during the
appropriate VHF Sprint.  My Email is jcplatt1 at mmm.com.
