June VHF QSO Party Operation Announcements

K7TM: K7TM, N7LKA and KB7WDV will be in DN-03 during the June contest. Bands
include 50,144,222 and 432. We will be on the high desert this year because of the snow in the high country.

KI7JA: I plan to go back to the same hilltop (Sheep Mtn) I operated
from last year in DN03bk.I will have 6M through 432 and 1296. The 903 transverter is misbehaving, so it may get left behind. I will have 5 element yagi on 6M (12' boom), 12 el K1FO on 144, 16 el K1FO on 222, 25 el K1FO on 432, and 55 element Loop yagi on 1296. Power levels are yet to be determined. This year I
may even take my sound card interface and do some WSJT. Listen for me on
the usual frequencies (except 50.255, 144.144, and 222.085 for WSJT). See
you on the air.

W6PO: CN82pl (Mt. Ashland) As time is getting closer it looks like I will have
a little help for the contest and yet another new band. We will have 6m, 2M, 1.25M, 70cm, 23cm and 3 cm. Helper ops will be Steve W6YFK and Brian K6OJM. The 3cm rig is 100mw and 3 foot dish. Has made a number of good long contacts in the past during the 10 GHz contest.

AL1VE/R: On 50-144-432-1296 with yagis for each band. Start at corner CN86/96/97/87 up near Evans Creek ORV area ( I hope the snow will be melted off the access road by then)
From here moving through CN85,95,94, ending up at Paulina CN93 Saturday night/early Sunday and down through CN93, 92, 83, 82 (Crater Lake), CN81(Mt Shasta) and ending at Mt Lassen CN90.

K7WA: Limited operation this year - Saturday backpack QRP Portable, 2 meters only, from Tiger Mountain (east of Seattle) in CN97. I'll have my vintage IC-202 and a 4 element "Cheap Yagi" for SSB and CW. Would be nice if folks would spread out from 144.200. Plan to be up there until 5:00 or 6:00 PDT, hope the weather improves!

KB7ME: Green Mtn, elev 5200', Grid CN93pj, Lake County, Oregon. I will have bands 50, 144, 222, 432, with yagi's and TE brick's. Mode's ssb and cw. Look forward to giving out CN93
on 6 meters to anyone pursuing the FFMA award. Lets hope for propagation. I will have cell coverage from this spot. My # is 360-798-1736.
