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. 

73,  Jon
