[w0zq at aol.com]

Hello NLRS land.   In addition to 6m being in full summer E season mode, and our July/August/September tropo season around the corner, here are some other pending VHF+ radio events.

NLRS Breakfast - July 13 at the Old Country Buffet in Richfield.  There will be a 10 GHz tune up gathering at W0ZQ's following this (~ 10:00 am) .... if you plan to attend and have not already please RSVP so we know how many to expect.

CQWW VHF - July 20 and 21, 6 and 2m only.   W0ZQ/R is currently planning on a small scale rove to scope out spots for the August UHF contest.  Most likely the St. Charles grid corner on Saturday and the Winsted corner on Sunday using a 5/8 wave 2m vertical on 6m and a four element yagi on 2m.   I will post a route as time gets closer .... anyone going to be on for this one?

Central States - July 25 through the 28 in Elk Grove Village, Illinois.  It will be a hoot.  Bring your dish and/or rover for rover/dish row. 

ARRL UHF Contest & Rovermania!   With my 2304 fixed W0ZQ/R will be out on 222 through 10 GHz.  Who else is going to be playing?

ARRL 10 GHz & Up, Round One - August 17 & 18.   Yikes, its not that far away.  Plans?  Attend the tune up party at W0ZQ on July 13 following NLRS breakfast
