[VHFcontesting] uWave Sprint and 60 Meters

[Dexter McIntyre W4DEX]

Propagation wasn't as good as I expected for a nice Spring day but 
overall I think the activity level was better than in the past.  Best DX 
was K3TUF on 903 and 1296.  Also I was able to log W3IY, W4HSG and K1RZ 
on those two bands.  The only contacts on higher bands was with a local, 
W4VHH, on 2304 and 3456.

60 meters, channel 2, was used by three stations for liaison.  W4VC, 
W8AC and I had the channel to ourselves.  No other activity was heard on 
the channel during the entire sprint period.  60 meters seems to be an 
excellent liaison band for weak signal activity.  This band would work 
great for microwave rain scatter liaison since it can be easily operated 
mobile.  Most of my 10 GHz rain scatter contacts were well beyond the 
range of 144 MHz.

My thanks to everyone who got on the bands.
