[Wswss] KB7ME Grid Trip

[Mike Coogan]

          Hello ALL,

            
  Going on a pre-contest scouting trip this weekend. Saturday, May 30, I will be in rare grid CN71. I plan on setting up with a 2 element Moxon 
  and 350w for 6 meters and same power and 6 elements for 2 meters. I should be setup and qrv before 12 noon. Will operate from this grid for several hours depending on band conditions and interest, ssb/cw only, this time. If I end up coming back to this grid for contesting or to just activate the grid will have bigger antennas and can work bands 50, 144. 222, 432 and 1296, plus can do WSJT. Look for me in CN71 Saturday.

  Will leave grid CN71 Saturday afternoon or evening headed for SE Oregon. Sunday, May 31 thru Tuesday June 2, will find me checking out various locations in grids, CN92, CN93, DN02 and DN03. In my truck I have 100w on 6 and 50w on 2 to vertical whips, if 6 meters gets rolling may setup the bigger rig. I have no special agenda while in these grids, mainly checkout places I have worked from before and look at a few new ones. Will try to update whats happening when possible.
