Hello NLRS land -

I will be activating my home station in EN34it, 222 through 3456, on Saturday.  For Sunday we have designated 11:00 am to 1:00 pm as the local activity hour.  Although my plans are schetchy, I will be doing a local mini-rover in EN34 and EN35 during the Sunday activity hour looking for all stations as well as working uW off of downtown.  For the mini-rover I plan to have 432, 5.7, 10, and 24 GHz.  I will see if I can squeeze in 222.  My rover rack is still pinned in the garage so I will be using a big wheel omni and 100 watts on 432.125.   

I hope everyone can get on for a little bit and make a few Qs.  Please remember to log and to send in a contest log as the push continues to generate logs for this fun 24 hr contest.  PAPER LOGS ARE OK TOO !   Also, you can enter a log as a fixed station and a second log as a rover, albeit in order to qualify as a rover you have to make contacts from at least two grids ..... this is what I plan to do.   If you work a rover, make sure that you log the contact with the slash R, for example W0ZQ/R .... this is important when the League does log checking as W0ZQ is not the same station as W0ZQ/R.  

Have fun, make some Q's, send in a log.   Try some Hilltopping, make some noise, let us know of your plans.

PS:  I  do have my 2w 17 dB horn 10gig system to loan out if someone whats to play with us during the activity hour on Sunday.

73, Jon
W0ZQ
