Sunday, September 15 wasn't too hot or too humid. Herbert AF4JF was busy on Saturday, so was Ron KO0Z and Harry WA0CNS. Consequently, the first half of the ARRL VHF contest was missed, but on Sunday we got together to at least participate a little bit in the contest.
We didn't intend to be competitive, instead, we just wanted to test our gear and to make a little RF noise on the bands which we accomplished.
I wasn't all that well prepared. I tried out my new 2.3 GHz transverter and I didn't get it on the air. My 3.4 and 10 GHz rigs worked fine. Herbert and Harry also had other bands with them.
All in all, we didn't even come close to breaking any personal records, but we did manage to carve out some time to get outdoors and to make a few Qs!

Extra "oomph" if we needed it, Hi, Hi.
