Unfortunately this site has limited views from the Copper Harbor
area. Ops there must move from the top of Brockway to a small
area down the road. Path length is 176 km.
Open to Marathon but 225 km. Shortest path to the MN NS
is 316 km. Most MN NS sites are blocked by local terrain.
Best  chance to work them is Sunday morning from Grand
Portage Marina. 316 km and the path is in line with the path to
Copper Harbor. Don't know how we will be able to fit all of the NS
ops in. There is not that much room for all of the rigs. I have
suggested that they go to Copper Harbor and join the others


Interested but haven't been able to confirm to me, to commit
to going or to the site where they want to operate:

KBØOZN
KQ6EF    10 24?    coming from Toledo
***W2RMA   Will not be operating with us
W9SZ      UP most likely if he goes   10/24/47? 78?
KØAWU   Canada?
KØCQ considering the MN NS
KCØSKM MN NS or Canada? Would like to go if he can find time
            between his family and work.
KA8JMW  is interested to come as an observer.
      He has no equipment. We have offered the use of a loaner
       10 G rig, but haven't heard back if he wants to use it.
WBØVHF UP if they go, but very unlikely to make it to the lake
      this time.

If you know of others who are not on this list and who are
interested in joining us or actually planning on being on the
air with us. Please have them contact me directly so I can keep
them up to date on everything.


73, Gary WBØLJC
