I will be roving in the January Contest, January 23, 24 and 25. Look for me. Here is my preliminary itinerary.

We will start in DM31, move to DM32, DM42, DM41, probably overnighting in Tucson, DM42. From there I will head east on I-10, take in DM51, move on to DM52. At Lordsburg, NM, I will head north to Silver CIty, then take NM Hwy 152 over the Emory Pass, DM62, stop there and operate a bit. That high point should be good for some DX. On to I-25 and DM63, north to HWY 60, east to DM73, north to DM74, DM75, and finally home to DM65. I will operate while in motion, so if you need me, call me.  

I will put a time able to this in the next few days and repost.

I will have 100 watts on 50 MHz, 144 MHz, 222 MHz; 50 Watts on 432 MHz and 10 Watts on 1296 MHz. Two element Moxon on 6, 6 element WA5VJB on 144 MHz and 222 MHz, and 11 element WA5VJB on 432 MHz. 1296 MHz was a bust in the September contest, so I will work on the antenna and feedline. Antenna will be either a 11 element WA5VJB or an optimized horn.  

More to follow. Listen for the weak ones. - Duffey
