Notes:

This contest was a blast and may be the best I've done as a QRP
portable.  Weather was perfect, conditions marginal to OK but
still worked most of who I could hear.

Great to see the microwave activity in this area increasing.
W9ZIH and I tried for a 10 GHz QSO after we worked on 3456 and 5760
but no go this time. Same with N2BJ on 2304. Maybe next time?
