Damn! I wish I had known you had 144MHz, AA5PR and I QSYed to 2M after each 6M FT8 QSO. Put more mults in the log. - Duffey James Duffey KK6MC Cedar Crest NM

Got ambitious and set up my “Rover Simulator” for the contest — OK but unexciting. Nice to work KK6MC and AA5PR in several grids. Glad I was too lazy to dismantle the rig today. Went out to the

Jonesy, Well, you beat me. I ended up with 20 contacts ( all on Saturday ). You are right that Sunday was a major bummer here. Only heard you, Duncan, K0NR, and K0ETT and I had worked all of you.

Duffy, I did copy your CW CQ around 2330z on .200 - Q5S5, when I was in DM77. But you never copied or heard my reply, and I never heard you again. Jonesy -- Marvin L Jones | W3DHJ |

Well, I probably won First Place Colorado Rover, unless there is a Minimum Qualifying Score for this contest. At first I was really bummed because I only logged 36 valid contest contacts. But, I

Where I have coverage, I will beacon on APRS. Look on APRS.Fi for me. -Duffey KK6MC/r James Duffey KK6MC Cedar Crest NM

Good to see some rovers out this weekend. My activity will be limited to Saturday afternoon this year. I'll look to give Qs and DM64 to the rovers when I'm on. Jim KC7QY

I'll be roving for the contest this weekend. Here's a rough schedule, subject to changes related to 6 m band conditions. I'll have both 6 m and 2 m with 100 W and yagis. Saturday I'll be looking for

The current prediction is for temps to be in the mid to upper 90's. That'll be a wee bit better than ARRL JUN VHF... I'll be doing DM88 - DM87 - DM77 - DM78, in that sequence on Sat. If Saturday

Hi Bruce, Sorry for the late reply. I had about the same experience that the others have reported. Saturday was fairly steady. Sunday not so much. Mostly 6M FT8 but did pick up 4 CW and 4 SSB in about

My Rovering in S.E. Colorado was relatively unremarkable. However, I was quite surprised at the number of Rovers I logged on 6 meters! Probably more that I've encountered - in total - over the past

I worked from the south end of DM66 (DM66na83) on Saturday. Was able to work almost everyone I heard. I tried 6m but with 20 watts and SSB it was a no-go, except a single contact with KK6MC on the

The contest came second as our search and rescue group was watching out for a 24 hour bike race at McGaffey, about 13 miles east of Gallup. I shared the Comm unit with another ham. Sunday after the

I went to DM31 at 5 am before contest to try to help a few that need that grid for FFMA,, on 6 meter.. To my surprised the band was open and in great shape until 4 pm,so that was a BIG plus for

I was at the K5QE limited multi-op (6/2/222/432) in EM31 (Texas) and spent most of the time on 6m. The Es was not very good for most of Saturday, but FT8 worked nicely in the marginal
