As I did last year, I will be once again activating the most needed grid 
(DN67) and 4th most needed (DN66) maidenhead grids in the USA this 
weekend. Lets hope the fantastic six meter band conditions experienced 
during last weekends Field Day will continue through this weekend as well.

Anyway enough babbling, lets get down to business:

The grids of DN67 & DN66 will be activated starting at 9:00 AM Mountain 
time this Saturday morning July the 2nd. I will operate until the band 
(hopefully) dies & then will be back at it Sunday morning until (once 
again, hopefully) the band dies in the evening. Along with DN67 & DN66 I 
will also be activating DN65 & DN75............Check out this /highly 
informative/ most needed grid survey:

Modes of operation will be CW & SSB with a */_strong_/* emphasis being 
placed on CW.

Last summer was a successful one regarding putting rare grids on the air 
from the KCØW/m. Just under 2200 total Q's on six meters were made from 
grids here in North Dakota along grids in South Dakota & Montana. I will 
once again be using the borrowed 550 watt homebrew 6 meter amp along 
with a portable 5 element Yagi & the olde trusty vertical antenna for 
this DXpedition.

Again, lets hope propagation will shine this weekend on six meters so we 
can have some fun!!!
