[NLRS] 432 Sprint Wednesday night (W9FZ/R+KA9VVQ/R)

Tue Oct 6 21:50:43 EDT 2015

Subject: 432 Fall Sprint KC0P/R, N0HZO/R, N0SPN/R & K9ADX/R

The Rover team will have three vehicles and four operators:
KC0P/R &  N0HZO/R Mel and Carol calling CQ on mostly 432.110 SSB
N0SPN/R Dan
K9ADX/R  Steve

We will be within 2 miles of 44.0 and 92.0 most of the time.
Grids will  be EN33xx, EN34xa, EN44aa and EN43ax. I have an 
APRS tracker pinging KC0P  with a truck symbol.

I want to start at 7 PM from EN33xx looking NW for DX. By 7:30
I expect  to be in EN43ax again looking for DX. This is a new team
and we have not  practiced moving around in concert, so it is very
hard to predict a timeline  of our circuling. By 9:30 we should
be looking for DX from EN44aa and  EN34xa.

If you don't hear me calling CQ on 432.110 SSB or CW give me
a wake up  call on my cell phone 612-804-4460.  I will also be
listening very hard  for people maybe tailending someone else.

If you can't reach me on the cell phone when I am down in the
hole at  the corner, maybe one of the Big Gun stations can pass
your message to  us.

I have no idea what propagation will be in the expected rain,
but we  plan to keep at it untill at least 10 PM.

I haven't participated in a sprint in several years.   There stands to be 
a fair amount of activity for the 432 Sprint on  Wednesday night due to 
Mel KC0P's efforts.  I know he'll be roving in  the EN43/33/34/44 corner 
with 2 other rovers.

This sprint is only a  single band so you won't miss anybody off on some 
other band.  Get on  the air between 7pm and 11pm local and keep your VFO 
and beam  spinning!

stay  out until 11pm so we will have the schedule shown below. We'll 
announce on  432.100 but will try to be up on 432.140 most of the time. 
We also will  try to put spots on the W0UC spotter.  Watch us move
