Hi, I'm planning to operate as W3ZM/9 this weekend from Friday through Sunday, with updates posted on twitter: https://twitter.com/KC9VGG

Tentative plan outline: On Friday daytime passes I will be on the road traveling, but I hope to stop and try and operate at least one pass (AO-91/92 or SO-50) handheld while I'm driving in EM59 or EM58. Friday evening I'll be operating the late night passes of AO-91 and AO-92 from EN50.

Saturday I'll have to work the first couple of mid-day passes from EN50, then I'll be quickly heading over to EN60 asap from there. If everyone already has EN50, I could skip the mid-day SO-50 pass to hit the road to EN60, EM59 or EM69 for the AO-92 and AO-91 passes. For the late night passes I'll have to operate in EN50.

On Sunday, assuming cooperative weather, I plan to try and operate the daylight passes from one or more grid lines among EN50, EN60, EM59 and EM69. I'll depend on how my recon for good operating locations turns out. If people favor a particular grid or grid line, that would be useful to know before I scout operating locations on Saturday.

Variables: Scattered thunderstorms on Sunday 7/21. To operate AO-92 on L-band I will have to lug my IC-9700 out for use with handheld antennas since that's all I've got for L-band presently. I haven't worked PO-101 yet, but it's in my radios and I'll keep an eye out for it and work it if the the transponder is active.

I will update on twitter as things progress.
