Yes it is Tuesday, so tonight is the night to get on 222 MHz with your 
modulated oscillators and regen detectors in hopes of making a contact.  
K8RYU promises to be QRV,  and is beyond my normal range,  but no harm 
in trying to make a sked. I hope to be QRV starting at about 23:45 UT  
on 222.100 CW or SSB.  As people show up I will move off of 222.100 
MHz.  Try not to rag chew on the calling freq, as stations well away 
from activity centers will use 100 to try to draw attention to 
themselves.   I move up off 222.100 after 00:00 UT as people start 
showing up.

Don't forget the ON4KST Chat page either. It can be useful for lining up 
skeds.   (Pick 144/432 Region 2 chat)   Also remember that K1ZK and 
WA3EOQ might be on later after 0200 UT.  I am planning a quick trip up 
the tower in hopes of correcting a VSWR issue. It finally stopped 
raining.    My hope is to work a bunch of stations this evening.  Don't 
forget.....Toosday on too twenty too.
