[VHFcontesting] September Contest Plans

[jeffrey.embry at gmail.com]

Good Day All,

I wanted to pass on that during the September Contest I will be on vacation  
and will be operating from FM25 (South Nags Head, NC). Current plans are  
for 6 (100 watts), 2 (50 watts) and 70cms (50 watts). Antennas will be a  
PAR stressed Moxon on 6 meters and an Elk Log Periodic on 2 and 70 cms. I  
have a sectioned mast that will get the Elk up to about 20 feet above sea  
level...with the moxon a few fet below it.

I will entertain some schedules if you desire. Other than that, I will be  
starting at the top of the hour pointing N/NE rotating counterclockwise to  
the South and then starting over each hour that I operate. If there are  
openings on any band, this method will change accordingly.

I am planning a dry run on the system that I am taking to the beach, this  
weekend during the CQ VHF contest...to try and work the kinks out.

Hope to hear lots of signals both weekends.

73,

- Jeff -
