[NLRS] ARRL June VHF+ contest

[Wyatt Dirks]

Hello

Plans for the June contest haven't been made yet but have been working on
the rover. Hopefully I'll have bands 6m through 3456mhz plus 10ghz working.
Going from 4 bands to 9 bands going to be a challenge but I think doable.
That being said I do want to stay close to station with those bands so I
can make use of them.

Considering starting out near the St Charles corner and heading south
activating 10 grids total or maybe the reverse and ending at the St Charles
corner. Any other rovers want to arrange routes so we can work I would be
highly interested.

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.
