2010 ARRL 10 GHz and Up Contest

09/01/2010 | K8JA

Hi Everyone

The First Weekend Of The 2010 10Ghz And Up Cumulative Was very Good.

Conditions On Lake Erie Were Fair To Very Good At Times...Even a Bit Of Rain Scatter Propagation Over The Lake Was Interesting At Times..

WA8VPD , WB8TGY and Myself (K8JA) Drove Into Ohio To Perry Park East Of Cleveland , Ohio On Lake Erie  EN91KT ..Where We Spent  Most Of The Day Working Stations On 10 Ghz Into Michigan and Ontario Canada..

A Large Contingent Of VE3 Operators Were Along The Northern Part Of Lake Erie and Made The Contest Worthwhile Indeed...Thanks Guys..

WA8RJF , KB8VAO, VE3CRU , WA3TTS , KD0AR Were Also Present At Perry Park Along With VPD, TGY, JA .. Quite Impressive...

Also Some Of The Boys Roved Along The Lake Erie Shoreline To Give More Contact Points....

The Highlite Of Saturday Was Mike WA3TTS Making Contact On 10 GHZ

With His 10 Microwatt Exciter and Horn Across Lake Erie....Nice Job Mike...

Finally Made It Home By 9:30pm Saturday Nite ...Dead Tired !!

Sunday Got Up Early and Made It Down To Sterling State Park In Monroe Michigan..EN81HV....Made Several Good 10 Ghz Contacts From There

as Well ...  All Total I Made 28 QSO;s On 10 Ghz   Best DX Was 194 KM.

Plans For September Portion Of Contest Is Lake Michigan Near EN74..

Hope To Work Many Stations In Illinois , Wisconsin and Michigan.
