     Comments: A new IC706MKII has given me 6M capability, so I'm back into
VHF contesting after a 10 year layoff.  I stuck up a 3 element beam at 55
feet Saturday morning, and was ready 1 hour before contest time, and  wow!
I had hoped to get a start on VUCC from this qth, but didn't expect to
finish it in one weekend.  Unfortunately I had to attend a Commencement
Sunday afternoon and missed 4 1/2 hours (1800-2215 GMT)during the peak of
the opening.  I'm just a pea shooter, but sure had fun!
	Rigs: IC706MKII, 3 element 6M yagi at 55 feet
		TS711A, 150W brick, 11 element 2M yagi at 58 feet

     I have observed all competition rules as well as all regulations for
     amateur radio  in my country.  My report  is correct and true to the
     best of my knowledge.  I agree  to be bound by  the decisions of the
     ARRL Awards Committee.
