stations on both 6M and 2M.  Also worked more Iowa stations than in any
previous contest.
- 6M opening to coast most of Sunday

Only foreign DX was TI5KD, EK80, 2296 miles ( heard C02OJ and C6ANX, but
they couldn't hear me.)

Worked Rovers east, west and north: N2SLN/R FN22, AB1GF/R FN33, N6ORB/R
CM87, and W9FZ/R EN45 & EN55 - Thanks for being out there!

I'm only running 100 watts and it is obvious that I need bigger antennas
and/or more power.  I could hear a lot of stations that couldn't hear me.
