[NLRS] 222 & Up Contest - W0ZQ/R cancelled

[Jon Platt]

Hello all.  The ARRL's 222 & Up Contest is this weekend, 1pm Saturday to 1pm Sunday.  The format is a little different in that the contest exchange is your six digit grid square (ex EN34it), its distance points (1 point/km) and there are band factors (ie, band multipliers).  Grids themselves are not multipliers.  See the full rules at <http://www.arrl.org/222-mhz-and-up-distance-contest>.   Myself, I have decided not to rove but will instead be on from home on 222 through 2304.  My 3456 antenna seems to be broken.  Based on the mid range weather forecast there may be some RS opportunities as well, so I will be watching that in real time come this weekend and I may be able to do some 5.7 and 10G portable operation, tbd.   73, Jon W0ZQ
