[MiQP-Mail] K8MR/m MiQP Plans

[Jimk8mr at aol.com]

K8MR & W8DRZ are heading to Michigan for the MiQP. Present plans are to do 
much the same mobile route that we did last year, i.e.:

Otsego, Antrim, Charlevoix, Emmet, Cheboyban, Presque Isle, Montmorency, 
Alpena, Alcona, Oscoda, Crawford, Roscommon, Ogemaw, Iosco, Arenac, Bay.

Unlike last year when were were in a hurry to get back to Ohio for Easter, 
this year there is no such rush, and we should have time at the end to add some 
counties in the Bay City - Flint area, such as Gladwin, Midland, Tuscola, 
Saginaw, Genessee, etc. 

Since last year I've added a Hustler 3-band antenna system, so we will have 
15 and 10 meters available full time during the daylight hours. I don't expect 
much from 10 (unless I'm driving past someone's QTH), but hope to find some 
European and West Coast stations on 15.  If you hear us elsewhere and suspect 15 
(or 10) is open to MI, ask us to QSY.

Likewise, I can go from phone to CW with one button (except on 75/80), so if 
I don't have a big pileup, feel free to ask me to QSY if you need my county on 
the other mode. 

See you on the 17th!
