Holly recapped it pretty well.  Our primary rover vehicle developed a  
mechanical fault which prevented our safe installation of the rack.   
That delayed our start by about 45 minutes as we had to strip out most  
of the vehicles normal equipment.

Saturday we operated from the Beauford, MN grid corners of ENs  
23,33,24,34.  Propogation seemed reasonable and improved as the day  
wore on.   On Sunday, we arose fairly late and decided to alter our  
plans from the Menomenie, WI grid corner and operate instead from  
Ridgeway Parkway in Minneapolis for our fifth grid of EN35.  There is  
a nice view overlooking the downtown skyscape and good takeoff to the  
South.  Although we only operated for a little under two hours, we  
actually made more Qs from EN35 than from any of the other four.

Final totals although somewhat meagre compared to other regional  
rovers was very pleasing for both Holly and me.
