Remember to look over toward Rhinelander, WI (Oneida
county) in EN55 for me this weekend.  I will be QRV on
220, 432, and 1296.  I may not be a rover, but I
definately am in portable mode.  Band breakdown is as
follows:

   220 Mhz   30 watts into a hefty 10 element.
   432 Mhz   30 watts to a stacked pair of K1FO 25
el's
  1296 Mhz   10 watts into an M2  35 element.

SSB and CW capable.  I will be calling out within 20
kHz of the SSB calling freqs.  I will most likely be
calling out more predominantly on 432 as that is a
more "common" band.  All said, the three bands should
be very healthy.  Hopefully I can get through the
trees on the parent's property.  

Even though the recent postings are leaning toward
"work the rovers", please remember to look for us
"fixed stations" also.  


As an aside also, I will possibly have a 50 mhz loop
up in case the high bands are dead and 6 opens
up...for those needing EN55.  I will also be running
the 10-10 summer phone contest at the same time on 10
meters (short contest If I remember right).

Catch as many of you as I can..hopefully the bands are good.

I modulate, therefore I am!
               ...73, and all that jazz,
