[50mhz] conditions and the contest

[Brian McClure]

I just managed to work Kansas(EM28) but it was a very weak signal into
my QTH FM26

I plan to be by the radio most of the afternoon doing college work and
working the contest.

I have a Icom 706 into a Par Omni at about 30ft. Unfortunatly due to TVI
I can only run 20w if the neighbors are at home and 100w if they are
gone.

Hope to talk with several of you all today.

Ps: as I type this I'm hearing stations from all over the place popping
in and out in 50.125. It may turn out to be a good day for VHF :-)
