site more contacts. Not sure of his plans for Sunday.

rain He may act as the fixed site and let the others rove. If the 
weather is nice, Barry will be a rover and there will be a few ops on a 
22 story building equipped with a 2' dish and 19 W and an 18" dish and 5W.

building phone or text Shawn, VE4SA, at 204-791-1674.

Final plans will be posted to the 10GHzContest  reflector.

*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.

         WØADL, Aaron plans to be at Jim's on Sunday. He will use the 
club loaner with the WØAUS club call.

*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 be 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.  
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 Saturday morning from 
EN54we, the Brillion Wildlife area. The site has a good views 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.

*****Fixed Site #4*: AD7OI, Kevin, AF4JF, Herbert, KOØZ, Ron and others 
plan to be on Sunday morning at 7 AM from EM49hq in Hannibal Missouri. I 
have a sked with them at 7:10AM.

Saturday Kevin will be out roving from somewhere in EN40 to work Gedas. 
I do not know their Saturday plans, but think they will be out working 
WQØP and others to the west.

*****Fixed site #5*: Pete, K9PW will be at EN62bo at 7 AM Saturday*for a 
short time *to work a few of us to the west. This site has views to SE 
MN. His group will be down by Lake Michigan the rest of the weekend and 
so will not have any path back to the west.
