[NLRS] Proposal for 10gig'ing this weekend

[W0ZQ at aol.com]

Here is my proposal for anyone who wants to play on 10gigs this Sunday,  
April 3.   
 
1.   Work off of downtown at 10:00 AM.   Anyone can set  up anywhere (just 
like our Friday night net).   I would probably go to  the Burnsville site just 
off of 35W and Burnsville Parkway.
 
2.   After this, say 10:30 or so, those who are interested could  form two 
groups.   One group could head up Hwy 55 & set up around  Buffalo (+/-) on any 
spot with a good horizon to the other group, but not on a  hill.  This would be 
somewhere around EN35be.    The exact spot isnt critical.   At the same time 
a second group  could move south down 35w.   If they pull off 35w at various 
spots  onto side roads and work back to the Buffalo area, the distances are as  
follows
 
Elko, EN34in, 50 miles
Faribault, EN34ig, 67 miles
Owatonna, EN34jc, 82 miles
 
If the Buffalo group wanted to move, they could, but I would expect that  the 
group headed south on 35w can move more quickly.    An  alternative is for 
the Buffalo group to instead head north on 35w so the two  groups are headed in 
opposite direction and open up the range more quickly, but  I'm concerned that 
there are more trees going that way and it would be harder to  the north 
group to find a clean horizon.   Comments on this ?
 
I would most likely be in the south group and I do have a cell  phone.   We 
can use 146.46 for  local coordination.    Anyone can bail at anytime.
 
Obvious I'm not out to try for some new records, just to have some fun,  make 
sure my stuff is still working after my modifications and the long winter  
months, and to see what "ordinary paths" are like.
 
Comments ?
