[VHFcontesting] SEP VHF Rover Plans for NL7CO/R

[n12614 at aol.com]

Arriving in Michigan on Friday afternoon and spending the evening with family.

Plan to start the contest in the EN82 / EN83 / EN72 / EN73 convergence area before heading down I-69 to Indianapolis, I-70 to St Louis, and I-44 towards home (EM04).  If there is enough of a call, I will consider starting in Standish to give out EN83 / EN84 / EN74 / EN73 before heading south.

I will be running 6m (100w to vertical), 2m (100w to 7ele SSB/CW, 50w FM), 1.25m (50w to 5ele SSB/CW, 25w FM) and 70cm (75w to 8ele SSB/CW, 35w FM).  I will monitor 144.200, 146.52, 223.5, and 446.0 while moving between set up points.

I will beacon on APRS and my cell phone is 580.595.2289 in case you "see" me close to a grid that you need for VUCC, etc.  I plan to be real easy on this one.

Everything will be in LoTW by Monday evening and I will be sending some SASE's out for the grids that I activate for VUCCr.

Don, NL7CO/R
