[NLRS] June contest

[w0zq at aol.com]

Hello NLRS land

The ARRL June VHF testing is June 9/10.  With the long days and improved propagation, its always a fun event.   I can remember roving one year and sitting in EN25 and working a pile-up on 6m with 100 watts and dipole at 12'.  Being a rover seems to add 10 dB.   I remember another year being in EN24 and working NY on 2m E's ... what a hoot.  During that opening I worked on recent Tech on 2m who was in his kitchen in NYC running 40 watts into a 5/8 wave mag mount on his refrigerator .... he could not believe that I was in MN.   

So what is everyone up to this year?  Not sure what I'll be doing has I am significantly involved with a home remodeling project and no chance to rove this year, unless is a mini-rove with the lower four bands and 5.7 & 10G ... TBD.   

73, Jon
