ARRL June 2020 VHF Rover Route

I’ll be operating Limited Rover in the upcoming ARRL January VHF Contest.

I’ll have the following bands, power, and antennas with a roof top rotator mount.

• 6 meters, 170 watts, Par Electronics Moxon, IC-9100, TE Systems amp.
• 2 meters, 100 watts, Directive Systems 6-element rover Yagi, IC-910H.
• 1.25 meters, 25 watts, Directive Systems 10-element rover Yagi, DEMI Transverter, IC-9100.
• 70 cm, 75 watts, Directive Systems 15-element rover Yagi, IC-910H.

Modes will include SSB, FT8/FT4, MSK144, and CW. I’ll also be able to operate WSJT modes on each rig at the same time. Not sure I’ll need that, but we’ll see what happens.

As is my standard practice with the operating position in the back seat, I will operate stationary from each grid. I won’t be operating while in motion.

Here’s the route and general times. [Updated 10-June-2020]
