Hi VHFers

In the middle of January, there is not much to do outdoors, so why not 
park your carcass in the chair in front of the 222 rig and make a few 
contacts.   Getting on 222 is much more fun than other pursuits of late, 
like protesting against the Ayatolah in Iran.  I tried that once and 
found out that it was a bad idea.  So, instead of starting a revolution, 
just sit back and look for stations on the 222 band!   I plan to fdo 
just that starting a bit before 00:00 UT tonight.  Get on or about 
222.100 and look for others doing the same thing. I am hopeful that we 
get a chance to work K1PXE in Milford, CT.  The first person to work 
K1PXE gets bragging rights and possibly a chance to enter the Karaoke 
trials at Bucky's Tavern in Buxton, Maine. I hear there is stiff 
competition. Lots of hefty girls with brass pipes!!  The Activity 
Committee is working on a Karaoke deal as we speak.

Don't forget to check in to ON4KST and let people know you are there.  
Use the 144/432 Region 2 Chat.  I hope to see many stations active this 
evening.
