Hello all,

I will be QRV from EN45 (from our tower site SW of Ridgeland, WI, 
approx. 45 11N, 91 55W) on Saturday from about 1800 UTC until about 0100 
UTC Sunday ( 1PM to 8 PM CDT).  Unfortunately, I'll only have 432 MHz.  
Will be running 20 Watts into a 6 element Yagi.  Planning to call 
between 432.100 and 432.150.  Our site is at about 1277 MSL.  Good 
visual takeoff from about West, through North and over to ESE.  Looking 
for stations from about Forest Lake, MN to Duluth, MN and over to about 
Medford, WI.  Those should be clear shots.  Will try to work folks in 
the Twin Cities as well.  Hope to hear SOMETHING!!  Would be working the 
contest Sunday as well, but the locals coralled me into running my 
antique (Farmall) tractor in the parade for the Bloomer (WI) fair.  
Could I be a rover from the tractor hi hi (probably not, it's a 6V 
system)???
