Hi Bob,

As far as I know, we are still a go to make the band captain changes we 
discussed, so if things are different, we need to determine that now. Under that 
understanding, if Scott is prepared for 6m then I will be ready for 2m. Tom and 
I recently conferred and I'll take this contest and he'll probably take the 
next.

Kos

Subject: [Fourlanders] January Contest

I was reminded last night during a double secret probation meeting (beer and 
pizza) that it is time to kick off for the January contest.

The contest dates are January 19 & 20, 2013.  Usual times of 2PM Saturday till 
11PM Sunday night.

Once again we are planning to operate limited multi-op at my W4ZST QTH.  We may 
put up microwave to play with if time is available, but I think we should stick 
to entering as limited.

I know there has been some discussion during contest this year about changes in 
band captains and I'm not sure I have all the changes down, so whoever is 
planning to do the bands, let me know.

I am available pretty much any time, weekdays or weekends, for putting up 
antennas before the contest.  None are in the air right now.  Be sure to let me 
know which tower trailers you want to use for each band.
Anyone wanting to schedule a workday weekend, just publicize it and we'll see 
how many folks we can muster up.

I have promised John Kludt K4SQC that he could borrow a trailer for the TechFest 
which I think is the weekend before the contest.  We have so many trailers 
available, I don't think this will be any impact on our plans.  I'd of course, 
rather have all the antennas up by that weekend (a week before the contest) so 
if one of you that normally doesn't bring their tower trailer to my place for 
contests, would loan yours to John, that would make things easy for us.  He has 
borrowed mine before and knows how to use it.  I am going to make one for him 
eventually, but we are looking for a mast for him.

Let me know if you plan to participate in the contest.

Bob
