[NLRS] W0ZQ - Microwave Sprint Plans

[wb0ljc@juno.com]

Hi Jon,

I have looked at Radio Mobile and found that there may be
direct line of sight shots to the Minneapolis buildings from 
the Lonsdale area. The clearances are small, trees can
be a problem.

I have subgrid c-to-c bearing of 7dT for EN34hm to EN34ix.
Perhaps your bearing is more accurate.

I also looked at the path to Jim in EN35tp. It should be doable
from your location. Signals are predicted to be weak but worth
a try. I have a bearing of 32dT for you and 213dT for Jim. Not
to far off those for the Twin Cities area.

Do you have some sites planned for the return trip from Ellendale?

Do we want to do anything SUnday?

73,  Gary  WB0LJC
