[AK-VHF] Contest (so far)

[Edward R Cole]

Pretty good turnout today:
worked:
NL7OW on 50 + 144
KL7YK on 50, 144, and 432
KL6M on 50,144, 432
KL7KY on 50
KL7AIR on 50 and 144
heard but not worked KL7AA and KL7SB on 144

My K3 appears deaf on 50 and 222 (different reasons); KX3 worked well 
on 50 once I switched to USB
Did not hear anyone from BP41.  Score for today = 60

My wife took me to lunch at 3pm

Tomorrow I will monitor 50.125 with the KX3 and try some 2m-eme 
starting at 8am.  The Sun is very close to the Moon so sky noise is 
very high.  That may make eme difficult for small stations.

If 6m opens I will QRT on eme.  My calling freq. using JT65 is 
144.116; 1300w should be easily heard around southcentral AK.
