My plan for the contest this weekend, if all goes well, is to be on later
in the afternoon on Saturday.  I will be antenna limited on 222 -- probably
only my 6-element "cheap yagi" on that band.  I hope to pull a run of
heliax and get my 10-element "cheap yagi" up for 1296, my first footprint
on that band for a contest.  I'll be power limited to 3 watts for this
weekend, but hope to upgrade both antenna and power before the September
contest.  I'll probably be pinging those who post their contact
information, especially to try to make the path on 1296 if it seems
feasible.

I keep intending to write up our adventures in the CQ VHF contest, as well
as the ARRL June contest.  Will do my best to send out a summary, albeit
late....

73,

David  W9HQ
