I my haste to get the plan out to the reflectors last night I forgot to include
the frequency information.
We will be CQ'ing mostly on 144.240, and using .140 for 50, 222 and 432. If 6
meters is open we will collect some new mults and get back to cq'ing on 2. All
the high band contacts will be primarily on .100. We may venture down to .200
if stations are not finding us on .240 but it will be cq on .200 and then listen
on .240. The calling frequency can be clogged during contests and we don't want
to contribute to it.
(original message)
John (NG0R) and Jon (W0AMT) are going to do 14 grids for the ARRL June VHF QSO
Party Contest. We will have 6 through 3456 cooking with 6 to 8 foot beams for
all bands except of course 6 meters where we are trying out a PAR Moxon. We
will also have a pair of loops for 2 meters.
We are going to start the contest in the Milwaukee, WI area. We will spend
about an hour each in EN62, EN63, EN52 and EN53. We will be departing the
Milwaukee area around 5pm and heading towards EN43 and EN42. We are planning to
arrive in EN43 around 7:15pm.
Sunday Morning we will be at the EN33, EN23, EN22, EN32 grid corner around 10am.
and work about an hour from each of those grids before heading north. We should
arrive at the EN24, EN25, EN35, EN34 grid corner around 5:20pm. We will finish
the contest somewhere in EN35.
Good Luck in the contest and Safe Driving to the rovers.
73, Jon
W0AMT
