Score from the home station.  Was on mostly on Saturday as I went  roving 
Sunday morning then watched some football after that.  Conditions at  the 
start were not too bad except that the rain was causing problems on the high  
bands.  My favorite QSO was working W9FZ/R on 6m when Bruce was in EN52bw -  
a distance of 345 km.  I'm running 100 watts into a pair of stacked omni's  
while Bruce was running 100w into a dipole at abt 20'.  Never heard any Es  
on 6m, and just a few rare MS bursts. On the other end of the spectrum  my 
only 10gig QSO was a garage QSO with W0GHZ, a distance of just 27  km, but 
its over the mountains and through the woods (so to speak) so we used  rain 
(mist/drizzle) scatter.   
 
When you send in your logs, don't forget to list Northern Lights Radio
