I spent most of the weekend working the ARRL 10 GHz Contest.
I'm still new at 10 GHz work, so there is much to learn. 
Seems like there was good participation and conditions were OK.

In the second weekend, I logged 17 QSOs to 8 grid locations, modes were CW
and SSB.  
( I was unable to complete several additional attempted QSOs. )

Here are my completed contacts:

WB8TGY in EN63vb ( Michigan - 160 miles )

K9JK, K2YAZ, WA8VPD, and WB8U in EN74av ( Michigan - 219 miles via
"Rain-scatter" )

K9PW and W9SZ in EN64ed ( Wisconsin - 123 miles )

W9FZ, KA9VVQ, WB0LJC, and W0ZQ in EN32xo ( Iowa - 137 miles )

KA9VDU in EN53ms, EN54ma, and EN53px ( Wisconsin - 64, 80, 82 miles ) 

KB8U, K9JK, and WB8TGY in EN64tf ( Michigan - 176 miles ) 

I also worked Ron - W9ZIH in EN51nv ( Illinois - 73 miles ) the 1st weekend
of the event.

I hope to complete a 10w amplifier for 10 GHz this winter.
