For those who do not subscribe to the NLRS mailing list, here is a quick 
summary of activity plans for the second weekend of the ARRL 10GHz 
Cumulatives.  There will undoubtedly be others active as well, however, 
any such plans have not yet been announced.

Furthermore, William Hepburn's tropo pages are predicting quite extensive 
tropo enhancement for both Saturday and Sunday.  How this may affect the 
10GHz and up bands is unknown, however, the enhancement appears to run 
from central Minnesota all the way down into the Gulf States.  THIS COULD 
BE VERY EXCITING!

There will be a number of distinct groups operating this weekend, 
distributed around Minnesota and the Eastern Dakotas.  Plans are to 
coordinate (if necessary) via 144.260MHz USB and/or cellular telephone.

One group (N0KP, W0ZQ, KD0JI, N0UK, and probably W0/EI2AK) will operate 
from Sisseton, SD (EN15kp) on Saturday and from Summitt, SD on Sunday.

W9FZ and KC0IYT will be roving the Red River Valley MN/ND border up to the 
Canadian border.

WA2VOI will be on Mt Tom in Central MN.

WB0LJC and W0AUS will be operating from various sites within 50 miles or 
so fo the Twin Cities Metro area.

N0AKC and KB9PJL will be located on Elk Mound, WI (EN44??).

KC0P, N0HZO, and K0SHF will be roving in South-Eastern MN (southern 
EN34/northern EN33).

Other activities are not currently known to me.

Hopefully we'll see a bunch of others on from who-knows-where!

Let's see EN15kp to EM12ll, that 1464 points per QSO - I like it, 
Dorothy...

	Europeans think 100 miles is a long way;
	Americans think 100 years is a long time!
