>From K9JK:
 
Hello VHF Contest-land,

Looking at Hepburn's forecast graphics, it  looks like potential for some 
"slight" tropospheric enhancement in the area of  the southern Great Lakes this 
evening, particularly along the southern part of  Michigan's Lower Peninsula 
(aka "the mitten"). Or do I not know how to read the  charts?

Will anyone else be on to "test" it?

WB8BZK/R and K9JK/R  will both be on from the NW Suburban area of Chicago 
(EN52, EN62, EN51, EN61),  Others reporting plans to be on from this neck of the 
woods...K9KL (EN64ck),  KC9BQA (EN63ao), N9TF (EN52xg). 

Hello Northern Ohio and Southern  Ontario? (Western Pennsylvania? Western New 
York?) DO remember that the Sprint  doesn't start for Central Time until an 
hour after it starts for Eastern Time so  turn your beams west at 8pm Eastern 
time.

73, JK


Note:  Today in Cleveland I'm been hearing QRM on the FM BC Band on a  lot of 
stations.  This morning the TV8 News department had a complaint that  they 
were hearing Detroit's news operation on 450 MHz.  So there could be  good 
conditions tonight!
