[VHFcontesting] 2m Fall Sprint

[Bill Olson]

I'll be out in the rover some of the time.. probably a couple of my "normal local spots" in FN54 and FN55. 7 elements, 200 watts.. I'll also have 222 and 432 with me if anyone "needs the grid".. but no 6M, no uW. probably starting at FN54jq, then FN55ia. no internet, no chat page, no digital, just CW and SSB.. will be calling CQ up the band a ways, say around .135.. Terry, I'll be looking for you and will make a sked if you wanna give it a try!

> Tomorrow evening is the 2m fall sprint sponsored by our friends at the Southeastern VHF Society (THANK YOU!!!). I will be operating from the K8GP location @ W4RX - FM19BB. With 332 elements pointing 5 different directions at all times, we hear very well and regularly work 150w stations well beyond 500 miles. I will operate between 144.190 and .195 depending on QRM. If you are on, please give me a call. If I don't answer your call, don't give up!! The band will come around and your signal will peak up!!! Call on cw if running low power, that almost always gets through.
