Scott and I are headed for Copper Harbor, MI this again this year (EN67).  Will will be using his call of N0EDV while up there.  Unfortunately we will be an hour or two late getting on the air as I have a promotion exam in Ashland that Saturday morning, so we won't be on the road until 10:30ish.  We will have the loop on my truck as we travel.  Sunday we will be on all day as we have reservations through Monday.  I think this is about our 10th trip up that way for the contest.

Spread sheet updated.

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
