[SECC] Fw: ARRL June VHF KU8E Single Op LP

[Macie, Gordon]

After starting 15 minutes late I managed to work about 50 q's in the
first two hours.. Only managed 30 more the rest of the contest. The
cluster never slowed down so apparently other areas had much better
condx and there will 
Be some big scores. It was fun while it lasted but disappointing
overall.
It was open great Friday night and Saturday up to the contest. Timing
was just off.
