06/29/2002 | N0LL This ARRL VHF contest was something like my 83rd consecutive. June contests always offer a hope for E skip which can be a contest neutralizer to all the population other parts of the country have. Not much Es this year however. This years June contest was about one week or more to early for best conditions. The weekend this year was a windy and dry one so the noise level was a challange. Thanks to N0DQS/R and KB0QGT/R and others for their extra efforts. -- N0LL
