[PPRAANet] January VHF Contest - K0NR Mt Herman MM79 (?)

[Bob Witte K0NR]

I fumbled fingered the Subject line....should have said DM79 (not MM79).

Also, I didn't specify the time....I went up this afternoon (Sat). Mt 
Herman road was in bad shape, saw 3 vehicles
get stuck.  I could not drive all of the way to the trailhead. I 
snowshoed my way to the summit, got there around 1 PM,
operated for a few hours and got a bit cold. Now back home. Probably not 
going to operate on Sunday.
Thanks to those of you that worked me....I heard a few of you call but 
you were apparently not hearing me.

There is still quite a bit of activity out there, including a team at 
K0GIE's place (DM79 Monument)
that is still actively working the contest, so you might give them a call.

73, Bob K0NR
