[VHFcontesting] Tonight's 144 MHz FALL Sprint (9/22/08)

[George Sintchak/WA2VNV]

RRR The East coast will be looking West after 8PM local time.

Too bad the super coastal Tropo opening over the weekend has (surprise) gone 
away for the sprint.

Hello VHF Contest-land,

Looking at Hepburn's forecast graphics, it looks like potential for some 
"slight" tropospheric enhancement in the area of the southern Great Lakes 
this evening, particularly along the southern part of Michigan's Lower 
Peninsula (aka "the mitten"). Or do I not know how to read the charts?

Will anyone else be on to "test" it?

WB8BZK/R and K9JK/R will both be on from the NW Suburban area of Chicago 
(EN52, EN62, EN51, EN61), Others reporting plans to be on from this neck of 
the woods...K9KL (EN64ck), KC9BQA (EN63ao), N9TF (EN52xg).

Hello Northern Ohio and Southern Ontario? (Western Pennsylvania? Western New 
York?) DO remember that the Sprint doesn't start for Central Time until an 
hour after it starts for Eastern Time so turn your beams west at 8pm Eastern 
time.

73, JK
