Hello NLRS land -
6m's has been popping open a little bit as of late, and the Hepburn Tropo maps are again showing me that my color monitor is actually working, so it must be time for the ARRL's June VHF contest. The contest begins 1800 UTC Saturday June 11 and runs through 0259 UTC Monday June 13. Full rules for this fun summer time event can be found at http://www.arrl.org/june-vhf . The pending Memorial Day weekend can be a good time to work on your rover or fixed station.
Assuming that it isn't too hot ...... W0ZQ/R plans to be out and about, 6m through 10 GHz. My routes and plans are tbd but plans are to optimize the fun factor. What is everyone else up to ? How about a NPOTA meets June VHF contest operation, try some simple roving or portable operations for the first time, or add a new band.
73, Jon
