[NLRS] 10 G Cumulative second weekend September 21&22

[Gary]

Hi everyone,

Jim, KØKFC, has been nice enough to offer his QTH in St Croix Falls, W, 
EN35rj, as the fixed site for the second weekend. Please let him know if 
you are interested in joining him.

If you want to operate at Jim's and don't have a working rig, let us 
know. We have loaners for you to use.

I have two rover routes in mind. One is the standard SE MN NE  Iowa 
route starting at East Prosper or Spring Grove and south into Iowa. 
Probably over night in Oelwein. Then first thing Sunday morning run with 
the Missouri ops if they are available. Then turn west to US 63 and 
north into MN. Pretty standard and we know many sights to use. There are 
sites where we can work the Wisconsin and Illinois stations as well as a 
few sites to work KMØT and WØLGQ. However, I don't think there are any 
sites that offer a view toward the Kansas ops unless there is rain scatter.

The second route, and the one that I favor, is to start near Ellsworth, 
IA, EN32fg and then travel east along US 20 toward Waterloo. There are a 
number of sites that offer views to the Missouri ops and to Kansas as 
well as to the east.End the day near Oelwein. Sunday, travel back north 
as mentioned above.

I have sent an email to the Missouri ops asking about their plans. I 
will let everyone know when I hear from them. I hope that they will go 
to Hannibal, MO to operate on one of the days. It's a long drive for 
most of them so they don't spend the whole day there.

If you want to rove, please let me know.

If you have other routes in mind, also let me know.

I plan to be at breakfast this Saturday. We can talk about it.

73, Gary WBØLJC
