A relative newby to VHF I played around in this one for about five hours,
evenly distributed between Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.

I got on MSK144 for the first time and made two QSOs early Sunday.
And,  I managed QSOs on 6 meters with VT, NV, ID and a few other states
which were new for me on 6.
I ran my Flex 6500 on 6 meters, 100 watts to a 35ft high homebrew full-wave
loop.
On 2M and 70cm I ran Yaesu FT-897D (50 W / 20 W).  No digital configured on
this rig.
On 2/70cm I was using my satellite antennas - 15 element horizontal yagi on
2 meters
and homebrew 15 wavelength helix on 70 cm.
