Please don't be surprised if you hear K6JSS/8/GENE at 1610Z and
K6JSS/8/MARQ at 1615Z. No, it won't be a "very fast moving
mobile station." We've been recruiting more stations to operate
as K6JSS/8 from various counties during the April 16 Michigan
QSO Party.<br>
<br>
As of today, we have<br>

They will each be operating from their home stations, except for
the nut who will be operating from a portable location in
Mecosta County. This nut hopes to beat the previous
(Non-existent) record for QRP from MECOsta county. :)<br>
<br>
Please put this info on the activity map and the activity
details spreadsheet.<br>

if anyone else on this MIQP reflectors wishes to operate QRP as
K6JSS/8/CNTY from other counties, please let me know. Our goal
is to have all 83 counties covered, which would set a new record
for the number of fixed stations in the MiQP!<br>
<br>
Note 2 - To all the ops who haven't tried QRP during MiQP:
Don't be afraid of operating at 5 watts or less. I was
absitively amazed at the propagation last year from NEWAygo
county. There the antenna was truly a portable operation -
about 30' high at the apex of an inverted "V," and I had
trouble with the computer software. When I went to McClure,
HENRy county, Ohio for the OHQP, I had a much better antenna -
supported by a 70' light pole and an equally high tree. In both
cases my computer to rig connection wasn't working, so I was
stuck with my J-38 and Vibroplex Blue Racer, which was indeed a
pain! If you have a good antenna setup, you'll do quite well
with 5 Watts or less power!</font></font><br>
