08/06/2008 | W1AUV/R To say I had fun in the UHF contest is an understatement. I always have fun!

I heard a lot of talk about bad conditions on the bands but this is always a more difficult contest. I just accept the challenge and move on. The truth is, on Sunday (Mohawk Mountain in CT) I made some pretty cool contacts. FN31it to FN16qt with 20 watts on 432 CW. That's about 625 km.

Saturday I was on Mt Equinox in VT. The really bad weather seemed to miss me but I guess others were not so fortunate.

The highlight of the contest by far though was hearing AF1T. I'm glad to hear you're doing well Dale.

73 and thanks to all.
