To those of you that may be out and on the bands on
March 14th (Sunday).  The WIQP is from 18:00Z March 14
to 01:00Z March 15.  I will be attempting to spend
about an hour in each county listed, broken up into
the hourly slots during the contest (7) as a tentative
plan...I may shorten this to squeeze 2 or 3 more
counties out.  Anyhow, the route is essentially
running a counterclockwise trip starting out in Eau
Claire county (Eau Claire city start), North to
Chippewa, west to Dunn, then hopefully St.Croix, South
to Pierce, SE to Pepin then Buffalo, & possibly East
to Trempaleau, and Jackson time permitting.  I will be
running for sure the following bands: for HF, I will
have 80 meters thru 10 meters (phone & CW)...possibly
160 if I can tune the G5RV OK.  For VHF I will have 6,
2, 220, 432, 1296 (all phone and CW).  Again, bear in
mind to make this trip work, I will not spend more
than an hour in each county...somewhat less
actually..given drive/teardown/setup.  While mobile, I
will be monitoring 50.125, 144.200 USB, 146.550 FM,
and probably around 14.240-14.270, and/or 28.400.  I
will post again if things change.  I still have to
work the route out.
 
    Hopefully catch some of you then.
