> We need your help!  Tomorrow, Saturday 9th, I will be accompanying our radio colleague Mr. James Bucknall, KDØMFO, as he give portable VHF radio contesting a try.  We will be ascending Mt. Herman so that he can enter the portable single operator category of the ARRL VHF QSO Party, a national US contest.
>  
> What can you do?  Just give him a call on the radio after 12:00 noon!  He’ll be monitoring FM 147.555 frequency, and he’ll also be monitoring FM 446.000.  If you make contact with him on both 2m and 70cm bands, he gets more points than a single band alone.   But give him a try on 2m 147.555 first.
>  
> Also, if you are venturing south of the Air Force Academy stadium, please call again from anywhere south of there.  That is another geographic grid square, and he gets more points for more grids.
>  
> And for those of you SSB capable, he’ll be hovering around the typical VHF/UHF SSB calling locations:  50.125, 144.200, & 432.100.  If you have 220 band FM, please try 223.400 or 223.500.
>  
> Thanks for the help, I know James will appreciate you ringing in if you have the time in your afternoon.  
>  
> Oh…  You can call me too, if you want.  But I’m not contesting this time, just observing and serving snacks.
