Hey All,

I plan to operate one or both days as Portable/Mobile from Grid CN90 using an Icom 706MllG 
and at least a small Halo/Loop type antenna on each band. Since the weather predictions are 
for the possibility of Thunder and Lightning I will not be staying on any mountain top overnight.

6-Meters: SSB, 50.125 (the calling freq) and steps up in 5 Kcs like 50.130, 135, 140 etc. If the 
band is very busy there could be stations as high up as 50.250. Don't forget to check 50.090 to 
50.125 for CW and stations outside the USA "in the DX Window"

2-Meters: SSB, 144.200 (the calling freq) the same as on 6, 144.205, "210" 220, 230, 240, 250.

1.25 Meters: FM Only, I will also be calling and monitoring on 223.500 FM

70-Cm: SSB, 432.000 (the calling freq.) and in 10 Kc steps, most activity is on "432.110 and 120"

Sorry to say that I cannot regularly monitor 2 Meter FM and operate SSB or CW on the other bands 
at the same time because of severe receiver overload at my end but if possible I will try hourly CQ's 
as above but on 52.525 FM, 146.510/146.565 and 147.510 FM, 223.500 FM and 446.000/300 FM.

Hope to work you all and some of the rare Grid Squares in this area.

73: Terry Cobb, K6ME
