I am doing my usual banana belt rove through Arizona Saturday and Sunday. My itinerary is below.
The rover will have all bands 6M through 1296MHz. A Moxon on 6M, 8 ft Yagis on 2M through 432MHz, and 4 ft Yagis on 902MHz and 1296MHz.
I will operate SSB, CW, MSK144, FT4, and FT8. I will try to operate SSB and CW as long as there is activity there. In any case I will try to QSY to the SSB/CW calling frequencies on 6M and 2M on the hour and half hour. I prefer FT4 on digital and you should too, but most of the activity is on FT8.Not sure how much MSK144 I will get done as I suspect that Sunday morning will be busy.
Good luck in the contest. - Duffey KK6MC
