Boy, that was a fun evening! Thanks to those of you who got on. I
know, it's not a contest. But it DID spur activity!
I worked 12 different callsigns over 68 contacts.

It was a beautiful summer evening. Virtually no mosquitos. Near the
longest day of the year.
I get it that ideally, fixed stations would be sought out (in each
county) and encouraged to get on the air to make a contact. That
encouragement just might make a new VHF'er. But it's kinda slim
pickin's in some of the counties.
As an activity generator, I'm really liking this county thing. If
someone wants to give non-contest roving a try, a single band rove
could be fun. And counties are much shorter drives than grids.
