I will be on this weekend from EN52xx (albiet not full time, due to the fact
that I have a prior committment to compete as a part of an SMC team in the
NAQP CW) for the UHF contest on 432 & 1296.  If I can get the 9913 flex
ready in time, I'll do 50 or 75W on 432, and 10W on 1296 with my IC-910H.
Remember people, if you know CW (even if it's only at 3 or 4 WPM),don't be
afraid to use it.  In my personal experience when I was last on 1296 (in the
late 90s), I used a fair amount of CW to complete my QSOs.  SSB can get
dicey for pulling off QSOs on the higher bands if condx. aren't quite there,
and you're not running high power.

73,
