The second weekend of the 10 GHz
Cumulative is only a few days away.
Here is what I have:
Rover: WBØLJC, Gary. My route is up in the air. Mostly depending
on if there is a fixed site near the Twin Cities. If there are
no ops at a fixed site, then I may do an out and back route in
SE MN and NE Iowa, but will not be traveling as far south as
previously mentioned.
Rover#2: Chris, NØUK and Holly, KØHAC. Saturday start near
Hutchinson, MN EN24tw. Then move west for a couple of stops
before turning south and ending the day in Fairmont. Sunday near
Esterville, IA and working their way back home during the day.
Rover#3: Bruce, W9FZ, and Janice,
KA9VVQ are busy most of the weekend. However, they plan to be on
10 G sometime after 3 PM on Sunday from the La Crosse area. Then
rove for a few sites. They will call/text when they get to their
first spot to figure out the headings.
***Fixed site(s):
WF0T, Warren has asked to use on
of the loaner rigs. I have picked it up from Jon last week as
Warren was playing in a golf tournament.
***KB0OZN Mike. Plans to operate
at the fixed site.
Donn has visited the Whitetail
Woods site EN34lq. His scouting report is that there are limited
views, generally to the South from the parking lot. If you are
willing to move out of the parking lot there is a much more open
site about 100 yards from the parking lot. Views from this area
are about 103° to more then 330°. You can use Lenny's idea of a
small wagon to move your equipment. However, there is a close
line of trees to the west, about 0.1 mile away but ground level
is about 30' lower. Not the best, but no one has come up with
anything better. Let me know if you want an image that show the
site.
Fixed site: EN26cg. KØSHF, Lenny.
Fixed Site: EN54we. WA9TT, Larry Saturday only after 9:30 AM.
Home stations: KØAWU, Bill EN37ed. Without rain scatter he can
only work east of south due to terrain and forest.
Not On: WBØEBG, Ray. KØKFC, Jim. W7XU, Arliss. Todd NOØX.
WB0VHF, Evelyn may try to make some noise on the band Sunday
evening. QTH unknown. K8OS, JB. Jon, WØZQ. Not on Saturday. Maybe on Sunday.
Please let us know your plans/ ideas.
73, Gary WBØLJC
