Hi Gang,

K2QO/R will be QRV for the ARRL January VHF Sweepstakes. We will be
active on all the bands from 6 meters up to and including
10G. We have medium power on most bands. Modes include CW and SSB.
FM may be possible by request. Let us know if you want a sked.
We will be monitoring 144.260 MHz.

Our route will be:

Saturday:
Mobile and workable from 3 PM to 5 PM running from Watertown to  
Syracuse on-81.
FN22DW		6 PM to about 9 PM. Skeds after 7 PM.
FN23AA 		Around 11PM until 1AM.

Sunday:
FN12EX or AU	Around 10 AM until 2PM
FN13GB 		Around 2 PM until 5 PM
FN03AA		Around 5 PM until 6 PM
FN02WV		Around 8 PM until end. Skeds after 8PM.

We will be pointing NORTH!

We have APRS with a designation of K2QO-15 and our icon is the cute  
puppy, er, Rover! We will beacon of our location every 5 minutes.  
Once we setup on a hilltop we'll beacon a few times and then turn off  
APRS so as to not QRM ourselves. If you see us at a high elevation  
and not moving, call us on 144.260.

Mark K2QO and Paul W2TAU
