[NLRS] Great Microwave demo

[Zack Widup]

The farmer rotates corn and beans every other year on the hilltop in EN50rl
where I usually operate. This year it's corn. The corn wasn't high enough
in June to make a difference but it is now. I got by in the CQWW VHF
contest up there but it may not work well for the higher bands in some
directions till the corn is gone. I think I may experiment in the UHF
contest this weekend with roving around the corner of EM59-EM69-EN50-EN60.
Then on Sunday I may go to EN50rl, too. I should have a clear shot to the
north and east.

Not sure about September yet.

73, Zack W9SZ
