Visit <a href="http://www.arrl.org/june-vhf">http://www.arrl.org/june-vhf</a> for the rules link. <br><br> In the eastern time zone, it starts at 2pm on Sat., June 13th and runs until 11pm on Sun., June 14th. All VHF/UHF bands from 50 MHz on up into the microwaves are in play. I have a few posts available at <a href="http://kc9bqa.com">kc9bqa.com</a> that may help motivate hams to get on and connect with other VHF'ers in distant grids. <br><br> Please visit <a href="http://kc9bqa.com">kc9bqa.com</a> and read thru the 3 posts dated June 6th. You will also find the interactive Google spreadsheet link where contesters in the Midwest and Great Lakes are posting their contest plans. You are encouraged to post yours, too. <br><br> 73,<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"> Todd KC9BQA<br> <a href="http://www.kc9bqa.com">www.kc9bqa.com</a> For Frequent VHF/UHF Updates <br><br> PS: Expect WB9LYH to call the 144.240 net tonight at 9pm. Look toward EN54cl, central WI. Eastern time zone is always targeted first with this net. <o:p></o:p></p></div></div></blockquote></body></html>
