JUNE VHF QSO PARTY 2011 CONTEST

As always the end of the June contest seems to come too soon. Band was still open here,but all of a sudden there is NO activity.Had lots of fun at the home station giving out DN09 as a grid square this year.A lot of THANK YOU for the new grid.....and you are all welcome. Apparently VE7BEE was the only 6 and 2 m station active from this grid during the contest . Nice to hear ve7scc in CO90 from Promitory ridge near Merrit,BC on the air as well and also N7ckj/r from Bodie mountain Near curlew ,WA in dn08.Keep up the good mountain top contesting guys....Look for me up ROVING in September if all goes well....Worked both of the above on six and two this contest which is a change as we seem to have a lack of activity arround here on 2 and 70cm. I have to admit that after having my 432 array on the ground for many years, due to lack of activity , I am now considering rebuilding it and putting it back up 4 x 22 el just for the contests and maybe some scatter work. I have a few videos attached of some of the stations received at the home location this year.Best dx and see you in the Sept contest...de BUZZ
