Congrads to Jon, Mike, Barry and Dennis.  My hat off to all of you even
after a long weekend of 10g contesting.  Is that what you call "Its in the
blood".  73's Dave N0KP

Fun evening.   I set up at the Burnsville site, EN34is, and  worked NT0V 
(EN08oc) at 561 km, KM0T (EN13vc) at 298 km, and VE4MA (EN19lu) at  632 km
all 
while point at the same T-storm near Fergus Falls, MN.   My  bearing was
about 
310 degrees.   That would have made KM0T on  backscatter, and NT0V & VE4MA
on 
forward scatter.   Contacts with  all three were made on CW, then SSB and FM

with NT0V and KM0T.    Imagine VE4, ND, and IA all on one night on 10368
GHz.    
 
With 10 gig signals a good S9, Mike and I tried on 24 gig with nothing
heard 
either way.   Humidity is high here right now out ahead of the  cold front, 
so perhaps this was an issue at 24 gig. 

Congratulations  to VE4MA and KM0T who also made the path tonight using the 
same  storm.   That one was 754 km by the way !!!   Perhaps the  first VE4
to 
IA 10 gig QSO ?

73, Jon
