[NLRS] June VHF "stuff"

[Jon Platt]

Hello NLRS land. The ARRL June VHF contest is next weekend, so here are some tidbits:
 
1.  I added a link to the ARRL June VHF contest rules from the NLRS.org home page.  Right under that you will find a link to the W0UC Activity Tracker page and the W0UC Upper Midwest VHF+ Spotting page.   Self spotting is now allowed and W0ZQ/R plans to utilize this spotting page to self spot.   
 
2.  I have a 2m CC Jr Boomer and a CC 424B (with K1FO mod) 432 yagi available if anyone want to borrow one of both.  The 2m yagi is a 12' boom and the 432 is 15' (as I recall).  Both are knocked down so easy to transport via car, assemble, then knock down again. I have a 3 element HB end mount 222 yagi as well.   Drop me a note direct if interested, you pick up in Bloomington.

3.  I do plan on roving, 6 through 10 GHz.  As to where, I will be watching the weather forecast in the early part of next week to see what unfolds.  My goal is to have fun, so if 6m is wild I may not visit too many grids in order to play on 6m.  If 6m is slow, I may move a bit more.  Right now my thinking is to activate the Beauford grid corner, EN23/33/24 on Saturday, then maybe a EN25/35/34 on Sunday.   10gig Q's will be fun, phone number is the same 952-807-3816.

73, Jon
