If anyone is up for some VHF fun over the next few weeks, try some SSB tonight around 144.200 starting at 7pm local time - or some 2m FM perhaps on 146.55. Folks will be happy to make another contact and you might be surprised how far you can get. The Sprints work up through the bands every eight days - see the schedule and rules here:https://sites.google.com/site/springvhfupsprints/2014-information. Most likely for SOTA activations from a summit would be the 6m event on Saturday, 10 May.  Etienne-K7ATN
