[NLRS] Weather was here, Wish you were beautiful!

[Chris Cox, N0UK]

Well, at least yesterday.

Holly and I had a most enjoyable time roving, largely out west.  Condx 
along with the WX was absolutely lousy yesterday and we holed up in a 
hotel in Marshall around 7pm.  BTW - I'd thoroughly recommend the Best 
Western in Marshall should you find your way out there.  Excellent free 
coffee, good restaurant, and a very nice pool area.  Oh, and not too 
expensive either.

This morning, having had a full complimentary cooked breakfast ast the 
said BW, we headed down to the EN14/24/13/23 grid corner between Pipestone 
and Slayton, partly up on the Buffalo Ridge.

Condx today were much better than yesterday and we worked the bulk of out 
score in the four hours or so we spent operating today.

Unfortunately the big win at the CSVHFS conference prize table didn't work 
and so we were without 222MHz, operating only 432, 902, 1296, and 10GHz.
