[AK-VHF] contest

[Ed Cole]

Hope everyone enjoyed the contest.

Very little activity except on 6m-FT8 for me:
Happy to work three grids: BP51, BP64, BO49

Working Ken-NL7B/R in Fairbanks in grid BP64 on FT8 was the most 
gratifying.  We also tried from Murphy Dome (BP54) both days but Ken 
could not see me.  I got his FT8 signals both days and his MS using 
MSK144 on Sunday.

Ken was using a 3-element yagi so guess it was not quite enough from BP54.

KL7HBK BO49 was a nice surprise which increased my grid count to three.
Final score 45
1 144
1 222
6 50
