[NLRS] 222 Sprint

[Richard Clem]

I have some other work to do around the house, but if anyone needs a QSO for
the 222 sprint, I'll try to remember to keep my well-equipped 222 station (an
FM handheld with a rubber duck) turned on tonight.  

I'm near Como Park, and I'll be monitoring 223.5 FM.  I'm not sure if the same
rules apply for the sprints, but if it's allowed, you can get 3 QSO's out of
the deal, since my XYL is a ham, and a ham friend is also going to be
visiting.  If I get a chance, I'll also put out a call or two with my hightly
efficient high-gain antenna (a 2 meter vertical dipole which seems to work OK
on 222).

So please be sure to swing your beam my direction and put out a CQ on FM!  My
experience is that I can work most of the locals with an HT, as long as their
antenna is pointing toward me.
