KB8U will be active from EN71 on 6,2,222,432, 1296 and 10GHz. The 10GHz set is
a portable on loan from NE8I so I won't have the range I've had in the past
(when I had a dish on the tower). Some of the other bands are untested since
repairs were made, hopefully it actually all works!
The Hepburn tropo forecast looks good to the south on Sunday so I'll be
concentrating in that direction on Sunday morning.
Good luck to all, Russ KB8U
