Gang,
K2QO/R will be QRV for the ARRL September VHF Contest. We  will be  
active on all the bands from 6 meters up to and including 10G. We have  
low-medium power on the bottom 4 and are QRP-ish on the balance of the  
bands. Modes include CW, SSB, and FM (on 2M, 146.55).  We will be  
monitoring 144.260 SSB as much as possible. You can also call us on  
CW. My low band op is substitute rover partner K2ZR, so 40 or 50 WPM  
won't be a problem :-)
If you'd like a sked, please make a request. (k2qo at mac.com)
Our route will be:
Saturday Local Time:
FN23aa		Around 2 PM until 5 PM. (We may sub a spot about 50 miles east  
of here.)
FN22dw		Around 6 PM until Midnight

Sunday Local Time:
FN13gb		Around 10 AM until 11 AM
FN03??		Around noon until 2 PM
FN12au		Around 3 PM until 6 PM
FN02vu		Around 7 PM until the end.

We will be pointing NORTH! A LOT! We expect VE's to be a huge part of  
our score.
APRS will be on the DL. After two contests with it, I've hot not one  
single report that it was used by anyone but my XYL to follow my  
progress.

We hope to see you all during the contest and Good Luck!

73,
Mark K2QO and Dick K2ZR
