Hi Everyone,

I am sure most of you know that Jim, KØKFC's QTH will not be available as the fixed site for the second 10 G weekend.

Who has an idea of the location of the fixed site? The Whitetail Woods Regional Park in the Vermilion Highlands South of Rosemount is one possible site with views to the south. However, it doesn't offer views to the west.

EN25vj, Jon's Buffalo site, Ray's site near the beacon? Anything closer to the Twin Cities? Other ideas?

I had planned to run the same route I used last year in September (SE MN/NE Iowa). However, I looked at the distances and they are pretty short if the fixed site ends up south of the Twin Cities. With that in mind I am looking at a route the is further south. I am thinking about running from I35, north of Ames, along US 30 toward Cedar Rapids on one of the day. The other day I would be traveling north of Cedar Rapids, either on my way south or north. Which day I am on US30 depends on who is on from other areas.

My route depends of the location of the fixed site. If it's on the north side of town then I might use last years route.

Let me know your ideas.
