The first 10G weekend operations will be Saturday August 16th
and Sunday August 17th.  You are all invited to come and join
the fun at Buck Hill. You can see there is a lot of activity in Minnesota
this weekend. If you need directions to the top of the hill
call on 146.46 simplex.

Saturday start   8 AM. End about 7 PM
Sunday start 8 AM. End 5 to 6 PM.

Activity Hour Sunday evening   7:30 or 8 PM.
I hope the rovers will be close enough to make some contacts.
