[VHFcontesting] W3USA/R Plans

[Jimk8mr at aol.com]

The contest weekend for me is more occupied with my daughter's graduation  
from Ohio University on Saturday morning.  However, approaching this as an  
opportunity, I'm going to try to take the IC-746 and loop antennas along to make  
at least a few qsos using the W3USA club call. Since the van will be filled 
with  her furniture and other junk, I can't take any other equipment, so it will 
be 6  and 2 only.
 
Athens OH is in EM89.  Depending on schedules (parties afterward that  I 
don't have to attend) there is an outside chance I may head 25 miles further  
south to Mason WV and the corner of EM88 and EM98. On the way back we'll be  
passing through EM99, EN90, and EN91.
 
If I have any energy left I'll be on from home Saturday night and/or Sunday  
with my own call.
