Bob,

I think KF8QL/R is also planning to be up in that area as well. He was 
supposedly heading to the EN83 / EN84 / EN74 / EN73 grid convergence 
when I worked him from EN83 on 222/432/902/1296 in the August UHF 
Contest, but I never heard him in EN84.

My understanding is that he's planning to make the same route in the 
September contest next weekend.  Hopefully he'll see your note about 
needing help from EN84 and put it on the air.

Good luck

73,  Dave K8CC
