Kevin and all:

I just got back from my shift for the Michigan QSO Party at the County EOC, 
where we mainly operated on 40 meters.

Band conditions were not very good at all, but when I left, we had managed 
so far to have made 108 contacts and worked 45 counties.

We'll see how the current shift does between now and midnight.

We did not do any work on 15 meters or the higher bands, simply because it 
didn't seem like that was what the EMD was interested in.

P.S.  Lou:  I did work Scott W8CUB, but copy between our counties was rough 
at best.

73 from Tom Behler: KB8TYJ
