With my limited time Sat evening, and parts of Sunday morning and =
evening, I was able to make a few contacts.

6m    44    44    28
2m    17    17     8  =20
222     1     2     2
432     8    16    4
903     1     3     3
1296    5    15    2
-------    --    --    --
Total    76  97   47  =3D 4559 points

Where was EN35?   Must be a very rare grid!!

222 had an antenna problem on this end.  903 contact with GHZ was simply =
outstanding, actually better than 1296 and equal to 432 with a Down East =
Transverter and a 10 dB Celwave antenna at 20 feet!!

Still very frustrating to hear the metro area stations off the backs of =
their beams and not be able to work them.  Tried the 144.245 at 45 with =
no particular success.  Better luck next contest I hope!
