Hi Everyone,
There have been a few updates since I sent out the email a couple
of days ago. Changes are in BOLD.
Here is who we have confirmed at each area. Please send me any corrections:
We now have eight ops on the MN NS, eleven or twelve in Michigan and four to five in Canada.
Minnesota--K9PW (10, 24, 47, 122. No 76G ), WA9TT
(10, 24 G), W9XA (Has 10, 24 and 47 ), W7XU, KBØOZN (using a club
10 G loaner), KCØINQ (planned to pick up the other club loaner
yesterday), WBØLJC. WB9OWN not going to be on. Added
Wyatt ACØRA 10 G only to the Minnesota rover group.
Michigan--KB8U ( 10 G only), WA2VOI (10, 24G), K8ZR (many
bands), K3SIW (10, 24 & 47 at least), AA9IL(10, 24, 47, 76?),
WB8TGY (Many bands), WA8VPD (24, others?), K9TMS (10 G), WA8WPI
(10G part time. He now has a working loaner rig), N8PUM (Haven't
heard if he has arraigned for a loner rig. Garry, K3SIW,
may loan Brandon a rig. They are working out the details). We
have added Bill, NØLNO and Elizabeth NØUTP to the Michigan
group, 10 G only.
Canadian sites. Marathon and/or Terrace Bay--VE4MA (everything to 76 G. Multiple rigs on most bands. He plans to share the extras and wants to work between the two sites as well as Mich and MN), KØKFC( 10 & 24), VE3KRP (10 and I think 24 G), KØAWU (10 G), VE3ECO (10 G. Part time Saturday. Don't know how long he will be available).
Staying back at various QTH's-- Everything is up in
the air right now. Mostly depends on if Chris and Holly can get
the roof top patio for Saturday. More when I hear from everyone.
Previous plans--NØUK and KØHAC (on from their apartment
building in EN34iw. Balcony on Saturday and roof top patio on
Sunday. Sunday gives a better view to Pincushion), WØGHZ (maybe on
from his home QTH), NØKP (Dave suffered a lightening strike at his
QTH about a week ago, Extensive damage to almost everything. Dave
still has his small 10 G rig 8 W and an 18" dish. He plans to rove
in MN with ZQ. Starting site Cannon Falls, EN34nl ), WØZQ ( Jon
plans to rove. Starting site ws planned to be Cannon Falls,
EN34nl). W9FZ & KZ9VVQ indicated that they would
join Jon and Dave on Saturday and for part of the day on Sunday.
This may change again depending on Chris and Holly's plans.
KCØP & NØHZO (They had planned to go to Michigan but Carol didn't want to go this time. I hope they can get on from Cannon Falls, Vasa or Red Wing for a few Q's with us. To be determined. Haven't heard from Mel recently).
Send me any updates.
73, Gary WBØLJC
