I'm surprised I haven't seen any post about this past weekend's activity.  A
bit of hit and miss Es made 6 meters interesting here in EM95 on Saturday.
But the highlight of the contest was the tropo on Sunday morning created by
the low pressure system off the NC/SC coast and the slow moving front to the
west.  The tropo for me didn't extend to the north east past PA but the
microwave bands were hot from
EM95 to  FN10 and FN20.  Solid S9 contacts were made on all
9 bands, 50 thru 5760, with K3TUF and N3NGE and up to 10 GHz for 10 bands
with W3SZ.

Dex, W4DEX
