The bands were not great but good enough to get 148 total contacts including 32 states and 3 countries. Posted score was 5888.

I only have a Yaesu FT897 (100 watts) going to a GAP Titan vertical at 35'. Not bad for my small station.

2nd year for me participating in th Rookie Roundup. Always a lot of fun!
