Hi Jon,

I heard you every once in a while calling CQ on 222 and 432. I guess my
answers didn't make it that far. I had a 100 watt amp for 432 with me but
because I didn't have an amp on 222 and was limited to 10 watts there (and
on other bands) I just stuck with 10 watts on 432 as well.

Thanks to Jim W9SNR/R I worked 3 grids through 10 GHz. Worked a few others
thru 2304. My highligfht was actually hearing K2DRH's 20 milliwatts on 3456.
:-)

73, Zack W9SZ
