Paradise Michigan - Whitefish Point (Chippewa County)

Band/Ops Plan

Target Frequencies:
We have heard the message about special events needing to be at/near their posted frequencies so they can be found.  Ok!  We will try to stay within 20 khz (up or down) of these frequencies.  We want to be found!

SCHEDULE A CONTACT: Call us during the event 906 869-6621 and we'll see what we can do

NOTE: these frequencies differ from those published in QST.  This table is correct.

75M 3.83
40M 7.050 QRS CW, 7.070 PSK, 7.240 SSB
20M 14.070 PSK, 14.050 CW, 14.260 SSB

Basic Ops Plan - additional times and modes as opportunities arise.
We are going to try to be on as much as possible.  If the bands are just not happening, we may QRT for a while to avoid making ourselves hoarse unproductively.
