 Not many NCC folks worked. But looking forward to a lot of eyeball QSOs next Saturday at K3LR!

Comments:

A pretty good contest, though I missed the first few hours which I hear were
even better. Human ears and brain were used in making all of these QSOs. With
just the two VHF bands the backup IC-746 got a good workout, though there was a
bit of a relearning curve after years on the K3. Two meters continues to turn
into the new 222/432 with very little activity up there.

Nothing to the northeast on six meters until the last ten minutes when I was
able to get three new grids on CW. Last weekend I was in FN51, including some
time in the IARU test. Had things worked out I would have preferred to be there
this weekend for the VHF contest, but that did not fit with our hosts' schedule.
