Ya...WAY better than us up here in WI.  Rain and lightning yesterday and 
today so nobody up here is getting to play.  :(
Next outing for us will be the June VHF contest.  We (me and AI9Z) will 
be at our usual location of Brockway Mountain way up in EN67.  Planning 
to have 6M-902 plus 10 GHz.

Skeds desired for 902 and 10 GHz!  Let me know (your call and your 
grid(s) of operation) at acepilot at bloomer.net and I will work up a sked 
and let you know!
