[NLRS] DN85 activation K0BBC/R CQ VHF contest

[w0zq at aol.com]

Sounds like fun Matt .... stay cool.   I do not expect a lot of 2m activity way out west, however you may want to reconsider your proposed 2m operating frequency.  144.255 is a long ways from where everyone is parked on 144.200.   I recommend that you hang out closer to this, say 144.220 or even 144.215.   My two bits.

See you at the 47th Central States VHF Society Conference, July 25–27, in Elk Grove Village, IL
