permitting.
Planning to frequent 50.163, 144.233, and xx.133 from there up.
Subject to change if we are snowed out of FM08 in the mountains...will
improvise.
Listen for the weak ones!! Support your microwave brothers!
Have fun and be safe out there!!!
Strike a blow for amateur VHF es up...BE ACTIVE in the most active contest
of the year...(this one).
Maybe we'll even get a dose of F2 on 50 MHz...be ready by 0800 local on
Sunday! The band has been HOT!!
