I will be the first to post- real quiet here. Had a blast this contest, first effort with two new bands.. 222 and 1296. I had no expectations on 222, just put up a loop at 40 feet with new equipment. Loop worked great- 25 contacts all over out to 200+ miles. No enhancements although we had some E's on 6M to Florida which was only an hour or so. Worked 155 Q's - solid effort for September. 1296 needs some work- 45 loop yagi at 25 feet difficult through trees. 5 Q's OK, but work to be done. 73's  David
