[VHFcontesting] W3SO FN00 Spring Sprint 6m

[Ed Steeble]

98 QSOs, 33 Grids for a claimed score of 3234.
Operator: W3BTX

Again the Sprints proved very worth while in checking out the equipment 
before the ARRL June contest and the CQ July contest. We repaired minor 
winter storm damage to the 6m beam. At the beginning of this sprint we 
got  bad audio reports (tnx for the honest reports guys!). It took 1/2 of 
the contest to locate and find a bad mike connection. Between 
trying  various fixes, we thought about what could be wrong, who to call 
for a loner rig, and worked some CW.

Worked only one VE, no 9s, few 4s. Opening to KP4 and SA. Caught an opening 
to FL in the last 1/2 hour of the Sprint.

Again tnx to ETDXA for sponsoring the Spring Sprints.
