[NLRS] Recent 2m / 6m "local" activity

[billd@2z.net]

Hi Gang

  Jim KB0CIM and I Worked KB0BZV and WB0TEM in EN12 last night 
(333 miles) on 144.200 about 11:45pm. Signals at times were very good 
peaking to 6 or 7 S Units above the noise at other times about noise level. 
MSP would be about midpath, so wonder if we were enjoying aircraft 
scatter.

  I heard Jon NG0E EN23 call CQ  once on 144.200 about 4:20pm this 
afternoon, I called him with 60 watts out several times on both SSB and 
CW but did not hear any response. I had the amplifiers off.

  I have been calling CQ on 144.200 several times a day (morning, noon 
and night) but no one else heard.  

  Did talk to K0MVJ and N0UJJ on 6m with S9 signals yesterday morning, 
50.140 SSB.  Roger and I ran across each other working EM80 (FL) on 
50.125 E's and QSYed up the band. I also worked Vince N0VZJ on 6m as 
well as 2m Sat night, but conditions were not all that good. Vince is newly 
back on the air and is sure looking for people to work. K0FQA has worked 
him several times on 2m and this was my second 6m QSO with him since 
he got back on 3rd week of Nov.
