Hi Gang....
The K7XC/R team of Tim - NS9E and myself will meet Friday to finish
integrating the station. Then we will depart for Southern CA spending the
night somewhere along the way.
We will start the contest atop the hills outside Kettleman City in CM95,
then slightly lower in DM05, Then along the highway in DM06, then CM96 while
enroute to CM97. Sun AM we work our way to the top of Mt Diablo - CM97 for a
few hours then onward to CM88, CM98, CM99, CM89, CN80, and ending atop Mt
Lassen in CN90.
This route places us within range of returning home at a decent hour Sunday
night.
