Something new this year == DM86.  (Well, new for me...)

My plan is to start the contest in DM86bx about 1-2 miles south of the
Colo-NM border on NM 551.  From Google Maps and Google Street View I
should have a good horizon into New Mexico from there. After an hour or
so I will slink back up into Colorado for about a mile and continue to
operate out of DM86bx with a good horizon into Colorado. Then I'll move
a couple hundred yards further north and operate from DM87ba -- for
maybe another hour - and depending on Es condx.

After that I will roll on up to the northern edge of the grid to DM87cx.
I will finish the day's operations in DM88bb.

Sunday will see me doing my old, time proven grid sequence of DM78xa,
DM77xw, DM87bw, and DM88bb -- circling the 38°N, 104°W conjunction.

I'll be operating Rover Limited: 6M SSB-CW, 2M SSB-CW, and 432 SSB-CW.
