[VHFcontesting] [OVHFA] 10 GHz & Up Contest - Southern Ontario Activity

[Bill Burgess]

Running behind here.  May be at FN03tw Saturday after lunch, or the Orono sites with directions, till 4 then must return home.

Sunday, looking at returning to FN04la as the Toronto FM Society bbq is there and hope to arouse some interest in uwave with a few.  They were there last year too.  Mooch a free lunch perhaps   : - )

No bearings chart with me, will see if I have all from the last trip for points known to us.

Take an umbrella for the dish tomorrow and a raincoat.

73,

  Saturday it looks like we will be mostly working
  amongst ourselves with at least two stations (VE3NPB,
  VE3FHM) on the north side of Lake Ontario, well
  situated for more distant contacts as well - possible
  sites include Kerns Rd(FN03bi), Georgetown
  area(FN03aq), Star(FN03au), Orono(FN03rx/qx/FN04ra). 
  I'll be at various sites in the Niagara peninsula,
  looking north (though if anyone were to be active
  south and west of Buffalo I could get to a S/SE facing
  site). There will be two or three others active
  (VE3TFU, VE3RKS, VE3CRU?)....not sure which side of
  Lake Ontario they will choose. Around 9 AM VE3NPB and
  I will be at FN03df looking for FN25.

  On Sunday I think we will all be east of Toronto
  (primary site is FN14ba near Colborne, but there are
  several other possible sites nearby). It looks like I
  will have a couple of NY stations in grids that could
  complete my 24 GHz VUCC....crossing my fingers ! On
  the way there it should be possible to try for FN25
  from FN03ux or FN04ra.

  There should be activity from perhaps 8:30 AM until
  after dark both days. I won't get to FN14ba until
  late morning at best though.

  All stations metioned have 10 GHz narrow band; VE3TFU
  and VE3SMA have 24 GHz narrow band. There are some
  WBFM rigs floating about too.

  Coordination on or near 144.260 MHz SSB.

  73,
  Steve VE3SMA
