[NLRS] Get your UHF logs in! Five Days to go.

[David Palm]

I made only two contacts during the contest.  I'm leaving for China tomorrow
morning, but will sure try to get the log in.  Every log helps.

Regarding "Rover Mania" and the UHF contest, I had mentioned to my son,
KC9JTL, that there might be a big rover push up around the Twin Cities,
maybe focused on Buck Hill as a central point.  I think this happened once
before (last year?)  He was very interested in this.

I'm sure it's a lot of work to coordinate, but if something like that was
repeated again, I think we would be driving up to the Cities to participate
and perhaps we could beat the bushes for some others from this area as well,
especially if there are hams who might be willing to loan out some UHF-SHF
gear.

Thanks and 73,

David  W9HQ
