Thanks for the reminder of the CQ-VHF Contest (6m&2m only).  Its a 
good contest to concentrate on 6m as it brings out a lot of stations 
on 6m.  I will try running for some Es (hopefully); calling on 50.125 
SSB with 80w and 6-element yagi (Horz pol).

I will be working this month to get my Harris 1kW linear ready to try 
some 6m-eme and ms.

June ARRL VHF was largely a bust for me seven contacts on four bands 
with two stations.
