[NLRS] 9 Sept 10 GHz Cumulative Weekend #2 Update

[Gary]

Hi everyone,

The Cumulative is coming up in a few weeks. Saturday September 21st and 
Sunday 22nd.

Only a few updates in the last few days. *Still need to hear from more 
of you, either way On or Not.* If you need a rig let us know. We have 
loaners for you to use.

Updates highlighted with ****.

*Rover*: WBØLJC Gary.

*****Pretty lonely at this point. Who else whats to rove?

The plan is to start north of Ames, IA to give us more chances to work 
the Missouri and Kansas stations. Then travel east toward Waterloo on 
Saturday. Sundays route is unsure right now. Expected start time with 
the MN ops is 7:30 AM both days.

*Rovers Wisconsin*: Janice, KA9VVQ and Bruce, W9FZ have a general plan 
to start East of La Crosse and travel SW on Saturday. Ending the day 
near Prairie du Chen. On Sunday travel SE toward Rockford, IL. These are 
just general areas where they are thinking about roving. More details 
when they have firmed up their plans.

*Fixed Site*: Jim, KØKFC, has offered his QTH in St Croix Falls, EN35rj 
for use as the fixed site. Jim will have his grill going. I believe that 
Donn and Jim will provide the eats.

         WA2VOI, Donn plans to be there with Jim.

*****WBØEBG, Ray plans to operate at Jim's on Saturday afternoon, 
starting about 1 PM. Then Sunday for the full day if he is up to it.

         WFØT, Warren, will be using one of the club loaners on Saturday 
using the WØAUS club call. I someone else wants to use the rig on Sunday 
it's available.

******Fixed site #2*: Lenny, KØSHF and Todd, NOØX, plan to be on from 
EN26cg on Saturday. Starting time is 8 AM. Sunday they have received 
permission to operate from the Andes Tower Hill Ski Hill. EN25eu43CL. 
Todd has scouted the site and it looks to very good. Both of these sites 
are a long way from the rovers so we will need some rain scatter to make 
more then a few contacts with  them. Todd, NOØX, has a number of ops in 
the area who are interested in seeing 10 G operations. I hope that 
everyone who can, runs with them so the new ops can get a feel for the 
band. The ski hill site isn't too far from Jim, KØMHC's QTH. Call them 
at Lenny's cell number 612-916-0261.

******Fixed site # 3: *Larry, WA9TT, had decided to add some 10 G 
activity to his Wisconsin POTA activity on Saturday. Sunday he plans to 
operate with K9PW and the group on Lake Michigan. He will be on in the 
morning from EN54we, the Brillion Wildlife area. The site has a good 
view in most directions. Larry will be available for 10 G activity until 
11 AM when the POTA event starts. After that time on a selective basis 
if he gets a call from a rover. The POTA event ends at 6 PM.

Locals: Gary, WØGHZ may be on if he gets his tower issues fixed.

The Missouri ops will probably be at Hannibal, MO EM49hq, Saturday 
morning for a few hours.

*Not on: *Jon, WØZQ, will not be on Saturday. Undecided about Sunday but 
he might go join the fixed site at KFC's.

*****W7XU, Arliss, will not be able to be on for the 10 G weekend.

*Please let me know your plans for the weekend, even if you will not be 
on the air.*

73, Gary WBØLJC
