Yes, the bands were kinda flat. Plus, we had RAIN on Saturday and wet
snow on Sunday here in WI (which REALLY sucks)...Sunday brought high SWR
on the 6M antenna so I couldn't use it and didn't hear a peep on 2M.
And with the crummy precip, I had no desire to rove or set up the
portable antennas on 222, 432, 902 or 10 GHz....
