[NLRS] June contest

[Mary Brown]

I will be on as much as I can... 6-1296 minus 70cm, still working on 
that(bad back is really slowing me down) Point west from the Twin Cities 
metro, maybe a bit WSW if you are in the north metro(I am 60ish miles 
form South Dakota!). I have good antennas(four M2 23cm35's for a total 
of 140 elements!) and power(500 watts) on 1296 so small stations are 
very much worth a try! 902 just 3 watts but a BIG antenna! 902-14wl from 
M Squared with 21db gain...
