[NLRS] W9FZ/R and KA9VVQ/R heading the Michigan's UP and Northern Wisc for Sept VHF

[Bruce Richardson]

Upper Midwest VHF'ers:

 

Please point north (and tune up the band to 144.240) to look for W9FZ/R and
KA9VVQ/R during the Sept VHF Contest.

 

Check out our schedule below but we are starting in EN67, working our way
down through EN57 and EN56.  Sunday will find us at the Wausau grid-corner.
We know we will have ABCD9I.  We are working on E (and F).  We'll be
chirping w9fz-15 and w9fz-I at aprs.fi.

Our plans are also on the W0UC "Upper Midwest Planning Spreadsheet"

We'll be CQ'ing mostly on 144.240 and carry to .140 on most of the bands
except .190 on 6M.  (No digital modes this time.)  Sure, we'll do some
announces on 144.200 but then we'll jump up the band.  Hopefully, you can
help spot us on the W0UC "spotter" page:  http://www.w0uc.com/spots.html 

 

Please know we are trying hard to say and sign "rover" with each call and
qso. Please log us as a rover (/R).
