I plan to have my truck on the road in the eastern part of the state this year. My nine year old daughter will be with me, so mobile operations will be somewhat less ambitious than in previous years for WN7T/M. We hope to begin in the Yakima area Saturday morning, will sweep the southeast counties, and then head northeast. Sunday we will work the northeast counties back toward Seattle. Operational plans include mixed mode with SSB, CW, PSK31, maybe RTTY with playtime in local parks along the way. Bands of operation will include 160 - 6 meters, if all goes well. Also, if my Kenwood TM700A cooperates, we plan to deploy APRS on 2 meters with a 2X2 cell spread. I hope everyone has a fun and safe contest this year. Good fishing to all! - Paul WN7T

With Paul, WN7T, traveling through the eastern part of the state, I'm again changing my plan.  Now I'll be heading to San Juan County (the only one I've never operated from).  I'll take a Saturday morning ferry up there and come back on Sunday - active from the car using the hamsticks on the high bands during the day and low bands after the sun goes down.  Hopefully, this will be my final change in plans (it's getting close to departure time!).  - K7ED/m (WA0RJY op)
