Four members of the Green River Valley ARS, K9WM, are again planning to venture into the wilds of Wisconsin for the 2013 WIQP. This year we will be operating from GRANT County instead of our usual location in Crawford County. 80 through 10-meters for sure and maybe even some 2-meter FM.

CU in the Party.

NRØT - SSB and CW

NR0T will be mobile from the following Wisconsin counties during the Wisconsin QSO Party on March 10, 2013.

Burnett, Washburn, Barron, Sawyer, Rusk, Taylor, Clark, Chippewa, Dunn, Pepin, Buffalo, Pierce

We will be operating CW and SSB near the published frequencies on 80-10 meters, but concentrating on 40 and 20 Meters. Choice of band will depend on propagation. We hope to hop from band to band and work both CW and SSB on both 40 and 20 from each county.

APRS is NR0T-9.

KEØG - CW Only

SNOW STORM TONIGHT. CHANGE: I'll shorten up each of 4 counties to 1 hour or less each, ending by 5 PM local, 2200Z. Wisconsin QSO Party 2013. Planning to activate La Crosse (1800 - 1845), Jackson (1900 - 1945), Trempealeau (2000 - 2045), and Buffalo (2100 - 2200Z). CW only, about 45 kHz up from the band edges to separate my QRP from the big guns. Will listen/call on 80, 40, 20, 15, and 10, then back to 80, etc. at each stop. If you send RST to me, I'll do the same, for QSL confirmations you might need. Will be operating portable with a 34' vertical, sometimes with a 66' sloping wire attached at the top of the vert for better 80M results. I hope to hear you! ke0g, Dan

NE9U

Well, looks like winter storm moving into western Wisconsin late in contest so we are changing our route so we don't get caught in it.  (assuming we can get out of my cabin in Florence County).....hills are still glare ice and we are waiting for the sand truck to sand them......

When we get to Shawano county, everything on our old route is deleted.

New route takes us to: Brown, Outagamie,Calumet,Winnebago, Fond du lac, Green, Marquette, Washara, Portage, Wood

End part of route is entirely play it by ear.  If we can add stuff we will, but we a gonna stick to main roads.....back roads are just too icy......
