Better late than never, I suppose:

I'm the 2m op for AA2YG/R, and I'll be running the contest solo under that
callsign.  Since the rover vehicle is under construction for September, I
won't be able to use it and put forth a good effort.  I'm using my private
vehicle with limited eqpt & just found out I won't have time to visit all
the grids I wanted either.  I'll be on 6m with 100W and a quarter wave whip
(yikes, vertical polarization--let's hope for a band opening), and 2m with a
loop & 150W:


(Saturday)
FN12 1800-2000Z
FN13 2200-2400Z

(Sunday)
FN22 1800-2100Z


That's it, unfortunately, unless I can sneak in more operating somehow.  Too
bad the contest is 6 hours shorter than June.  Anyway, have fun & be alert
to the possibility of au, especially Saturday night.
