Activity was on the light side but consistent...I logged my last contact at 
2123 and was home a little after 2130.

My totals:
Grid     Qs  Gs
EN51  12    7
EN61  11    8
EN52  11    7
EN62    7    6

Total    41  28 = 1148...I think that's my best on 144 MHz.

Mostly worked adjoining grids and worked several of them from ALL 4 of my 
stops (K2DRH in EN41, N9DG in EN53 and K8EB in EN73). One notable 'skip over 
more than 1 grid' contact was with W8MIL in EN74 from EN61. Also worked 
several stations from 2 and 3 stops (N9AKR, WO9S, N9TZL, N9NDP, K9DQ). 
Managed to trade a couple with Gary, N9GH, who was out there as NA9US/R 
using his rover equipment and then caught him later as N9GH from his home 
station. On the 'down' side, there was one case where I didn't work the Grid 
I was in (EN62, though thanks to Dave and Harv, I *did* work it from other 
Grids) and two cases where I only worked ONE station in the Grid I was in. 
Thanks to all who were out there and to the SVHFS for their sponsorship of 
the Fall Sprint series.

Don't forget the 222 MHz Fall Sprint next Tuesday (9/27) and the 432 MHz 
Fall Sprint the following Wednesday (10/5), 7pm to 11pm LOCAL time.

73, JK
