Looks like the 6M KW Rover will depart early Weds AM June 1st 2011.

Weds June 1st,  Day 1 will be about departing DM09 early am, setting
up in DM17, Mobile OPs in DM08, DM18, DM17, DM16, & DM26
and making my way to Las vegas to spend the night.

Thurs June 2nd, Day 2 will be about DM25 from Potosi Towers, DM23
from a high spot roadside stop, with mobile OPs from DM26, DM25,
DM24, & DM23, Then making my way back to vegas for the night.

Fri June 3rd, Day 3 will be about DM36, & DM38. With Mobile OPs in
DM36, DM37, DM28, DM38.

Sat June 4th, Day 4 will be About DM39 & DM29. With Mobile OPs in
DM28, DM29, DM39.

Sun June 5th, Day 5 will Be about DN20 & DN00. WithMobile OPs in
DM29, DN20, DN21, DN11, DN10, DN00, & DM09 arriving home.

When Mobile I'll be CQing 50.125 on either CW or SSB with the KQ
loop. When stopped I'll setup the 5 ele yagi and CQ 50.125 CW/SSB
first and if no activity / opening, I'll switch to 441A transmitting first 
on
260 and receiving on .250. When I detect a reply on .250 I will switch
to only .250 and work stations until I feel no one is calling then resume
CQing .260 and receiving.250.

Pat - WX7M and Lance - W7GJ each has the info to reach me if
nessesary. If you do hear me PLEASE by all means... SPOT ME!

73s & see you on the air from several rare ones over the next 5 days
