[NLRS] proposed activity about 8:45-9:00pm

[Todd Sprinkmann]

   Hello all,

   I'm going to be looking toward La Crosse and Winona about 
8:00-8:30pm and see what we have out there.  I wouldn't be 
surprised if W9GA comes along for the ride.  

   After about 8:30pm, toward 8:45, I will edge the beams farther 
NW, just like I do with the net.  I hope I'll hear some stuff 
from the NLRS and CVVHF territories.  Of course, always 
very interested in EN36/37 as well.  Hopefully we'll get some 
stuff cooking.  Typically, I am just as good on 222 and 432 
as I am on 144.  6 meters I also have a single 5 el up 100', 
with 90 watts out.  Hope the noise isn't a problem tonight.  

    I will try calling about 144.230 and 50.130, give or take.   

    This surely won't be the only time I look W or NW.  I look 
all around all the time.  

     If we catch KB9C/R in the middle, then be alert for QSY'ing 
down 10 off his freq. so we can perhaps sneak a few Q's in 
there, while we're looking at each other.  Bruce takes priority, 
always, but you know how long it can take when they're fiddling 
with 10 gig and whatnot.  

     All I'm saying is use those minutes spent waiting to work a 
few other quick ones, while Bruce is away.  Be creative.  

     Keep it in mind, 73, good luck,
