[NLRS] KK6MC/r in VHF Contest

[JamesDuffey]

While it is always a crap shoot whether or not we an work the midwest from here when we rove, chances will increase a bit this time as we will be running meteor via MSK144 on Sunday morning. Here are the details:

WB2FKO and I will be roving in the September VHF Contest. Here are the details:

end of contest, if we are early we will operate a bit here

Bands 6M, 2M, 222MHz, 432MHZ, 902MHZ, and 1296MHZ. SSB, CW, FT8, FT4, and MSK144

WB2FKO, whose home station is dismantled in preparation for a move, will be operating with me. While we are dedicating most of Sunday morning to MSK144 we will operate FT8 and FT4 when in the other grids. WSJT-X while roving is new to me, so I am still feeling my way around, but we plan on spending roughly the first half hour at a grid on SSB & CW, then the next half hour or so on FT8/FT4 and then what time remains at the end of the stay back on SSB and CW. If we get behind schedule we will try to leave on time, which may leave us short of operating time at a grid.

When we have cell access we will be on Slack and APRS.

As always, times may vary, and depending on what unknown issues arise, we may have to cut some of it short. Please understand. - Duffey
