This erstwhile HF op entered in the VHF-3-Band category with two hours in
the chair on Sunday.  September was my first VHF+ contest and this my
second.  I have an FT-897D barefoot with a horizontal full-wave loop on 6
meters, 12 element yagi on 2 meters and 15 element on 70 cm.  The yagis are
at 55 feet and the loop is at 35-40 feet.

 Band   Mode  QSOs     Pts  Grd
    50  DIG      6       6    3
    50  USB      4       4    2
   144  USB     12      12    4
   420  FM       1       2    0
   420  USB     10      20    4
 Total  Both    33      44   13
Score: 572

My digital QSOs were using MSK144, my first experience with that mode.
Other than local grids I worked FN20 & EN54, both on 6 meter MSK144.
