[MRCA] Southern version of Moose and Squirrel

[Robert Nickels]

I mentioned this to Dennis KB0SFP who asked me to pass along the 
following information which contains some updates.  We've generally been 
able to work cross-country on 40 meters (with 60 as back-up at 0200Z, 
followed some nights by QSY to 75 meters and occasionally to 160.   7270 
is the first choice freq.  or plus/minus to avoid QRMing others.   Just 
look for the guys on USB and get out those old oddball,  mil,  and 
commercial radios, we want to hear 'em!   Or just fire up your 
boatanchor or ricebox ham gear as long as you're with us in spirit!

73, Bob W9RAN
