Comments:

We had fun getting together for a Multi-single to 
test the new antennas and set a new Vashon Island 
record! We used the Vashon-Maury Island radio club 
call, W7VMI. We pushed for 100 countries, so 
we're pleased to have reached 128 total unique 
countries. The new (and old) antennas worked well.
We didn't use the Mult station much, since usually 
only one band was useful.

Our numbers were a bit low on the low bands, 
perhaps due to the unsettled propgation. 40,20 
and 15 meters took up the slack, with pleasing 
numbers. We listened often on 10 meters, and never 
heard a thing. We managed to move a local hero for 
the one double-mult.

N0AX seemed happy with the updates to his ole' QTH, 
and he managed QRM while K6UFO caught a nap to power 
him through the overnight. N7LKL lured N0AX away from 
the radio with cookies, and got to CQ for JA's on 
Saturday evening. W7NNN came over Sunday morning, 
and worked Europeans during the too brief morning 
peak.

Good fun, Thanks for the contacts!
