[NLRS] KB0NES/R Contest Plans

[Phil Lefever]

I have seen a number of posts for contest plans for the weekend. Has anyone 
had the time to compile them into a handy list?

As for myself I will be on and off during the contest. I plan to be on at 
the kickoff from EN34 and then later Saturday and on and off on Sunday I'll 
be in EN35.

Bands will be

6m	100w 1/2w Sq Dipole
2m	100w 3 el
222	25w ??
440	25w FM Vert

It should be an interesting contest for the northern suburb 6m folks. No 
need to put up with the Channel 2 analog TV signal as it went dark this 
morning. In fact several of the TPT Hams have already put a signal out on 
6m from the old channel 2 array at 1200'! I worked Don, WG0C tonight and he 
was S9+50 in Burnsville running only a couple of watts! I asked and they 
plan to have the Shoreview stick active for the contest, not sure of the 
call they will be using though.

73 and have fun,

Phil, KB0NES/R
