      I will be leaving on June 15th (Monday) for EN39. I should be up there the next evening. If all goes well I will have a radio on the air June 17th. Weather permitting, I will get working hard on the antennas on the 17th and hopefully get everything up in a timely manner. If the weather is bad I will try and toss up a 6m dipole just to have something up in the air on VHF. I should be running 6m, 2m, and 70cm.

      I will be bringing a Hustler 5BTV for HF also. This should be pretty easy to set up so even if it is raining (no thunderstorms!) I should be able to get that one up and runnning. 

      The plan is to take off on Wednesday the 24th, so I will have to use the day before to take everything down. I will leave a dipole or a vertical up for 6m until right before we leave, though. That way I can catch any last minute QSO's as I am packing HI. 

      So the timeframe looks like June 17-23 for the bulk of the operating. Spread the word, and if you hear me on the air - PLEASE POST ON THE REFLECTORS! I usually use vhfdx.net for propagation/QSO mapping, I am sure you guys all know of a zillion others.

      Also check my QRZ listing and my call,com (blog, I posted about last years trip so search around - might be in june or july of 08').  

      I hope to work you on the bands!
      Steve, KC8QVO
