Just a last reminder that the MnQP is tomorrow from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm
local. VHF, HF fone, HF CW. Full rules can be found at www.w0aa.org . This is a
very relaxed, very fun event.
I plan to do some HF mobile, CW only, on 20m, 40m, and 80m. Prime spots
will be 50 KHz up from the bottom of the band with activity spreading out above
and below that (ex: 3550 KHz). I will be activating the following Minnesota
counties in this order: Nicollet, Blue Earth, Brown, Watonwan, Martin,
Cottonwood, Jackson, Nobles, Murray, Redwood, and Lyon.
Many of the HF mobiles will be using APRS this year including myself. This
will be a good test of APRS coverage for roving. There is an excellent site
at http://www.nmdxa.org:8040/MWA/Map%20Index.html where you can follow ALL
the MnQP ARPS mobiles including myself, or, you can do the findu.com thing too.
Look for "W0ZQ-1" with the puppy symbol.
Regardless of mode or freq, get on, make a few Q's, have fun, and send in a
log.
