> Hello all.  Yes, my plans are tentative, but I am thinking about operating from a site just east of Duluth on the Wisconsin side as a fixed station.  I have not been there before, but Google Maps looks promising.  If there is interest I can bring my 5760 too, 8 watts, digilocked on its internal TCXO, along with my 10G system.   Thinking about something in the area from Schafer Beach (WI) to Wisconsin Point, again tbd.  If there is interest and activity I would stay there Saturday & Sunday working whomever is available.
