W9FZ/Rover will be out on the roads of the 88th Meridian during the Jan
VHF Contest. This year, it's the team of Bruce and Janice (KA9VVQ). We
pledge to be on the air during the hours listed below. We might be on
more but we need lunch and dinner stops. We will start on the southside
of Milwaukee and work our way northward to north of Green Bay, WI.
We'll have 6, 2, 222, 432, 902/3, 1296, 2304, and 10G.
We'll be CQ'ing primarily on 144.240 and will carry to .140 on most of
the other bands (.190 on 6m).
We will run through 146.46/49/55/58 every half hour hoping to get more
FM activity.
Janice will be on the mike the most to get us the 3db advantage! I'll be
peaking the beams and logging. We will try to announce our grid with
each call particularly if we are operating outside of the times listed
below.
We will be chirping APRS "W9FZ-15" (puppy dog symbol) visible at:
