I plan to go out this year for the first time as a rover. I will have about 400w on both bands with a 3 element on 6m at 24ft and a stack of 7 element on 2m centered at 18ft. In tests this past weekend my range on 2m is about 500 miles to decent stations. Please keep your ears open my way. Below is my plan but it is really dependent on activity and band conditions. If 6m is open I may change grids quickly to work as maybe e skip contacts as possible. Will also be on the air while mobile using a pair of loops.

I suppose I will probably have to catch a nap somewhere in the night but other then that hope to be the whole contest. I do have WSJT working but not sure I will work it. If I do I will post on the ping jockey site. Also if you want a sked let me know and I can try to help you out. 
 
Hope to catch you in the contest!
