Hello vhfers

Don't forget to get on 222 MHz and exercise your ssb and cw signals tonight.  I looked at the Hepburn index and things look better than we have seen in the last week. There is a very slight enhancement over Lakes Erie and Ontario. I am not sure how that will work out, but I will be in there trying.   Activity starts around 23:00 UT.  Look around 222.100 MHz and then move off the calling frequency as activity peaks up.   The 222 and Up contest was so poorly attended, that I doubt anyone is burned out by too much ham radio.  So get on this evening, and make some noise.  In the past there have been some incentives to foster activity on 222. There may be a surprise coming up from the 222 MHz Activity Committee.  It would be a good idea to be on so that you could be in the running for a nice prize.  Who knows you might win a nice aged Kielbasa from Chicopee, MA?
