Hi all,

I will be headed up to Breezy Point tommorow afternoon to my foks and then
up for deer hunting on Friday to Grand Rapids.  I will be mobile, QRV on 2M,
6M and 10M SSB on the way up.

I will also be QRV Friday morning as I make my way to Grand Rapids in EN37.
After a stop to see Bill, K0AWU that morning, its off to the deer camp.  I
will be on 2M SSB with my HO loop on top of a mine pile in EN37 just
slightly NE of Grand Rapids, I will be up there to scout for a good
microwave spot.  Its so high in elevation there I thought I saw the top of
the IDS tower from there when I quickly scoped it out last year :-O

I should be on the mine pile late Friday afternoon just before dusk.  If I
get time on Thursday at my folks place, Im going to throw together a "cheap
yagi" 3 element for 2M to bring to the mine pile.

Then I will be QRV from the deer stand during the doldrums of Saturday and
Sunday afternoon, QRP on HF with the FT817.  Look for me in the CW parts of
the bands.

I will again be mobile back Monday afternoon on the way back to EN13.

So, if any of you guys are on then, be good to chat to make the drive go
better.

Thanks!
