[VHFcontesting] KC9BQA EN63ao on for CQ WW VHF

[Zack Widup]

I am definitely going to be a Rover on Saturday.  I've decided I will 
start out in EM69 (somewhere near EM69ax) and work everyone I can, and 
then go to EM59wx, which will be a better site (hilltop). Then I will 
drive to EN50xf and EN60af. After that I don't know where I'll end up but 
it will probably be somewhere in EN51 and EN61.

I've been told I may be the only station active from EM59 and EM69 in this 
contest. The other Rovers in the area will all be up north.

I'll be looking for you, Todd; we should be able to work.

This will be a day to take a lot of sunscreen and cold water with me.

Have fun, everyone!

73, Zack W9SZ
