Subj: UHF: 13cm operating times in contest

OK Guys, thanks for all the inputs, the consensus seems to be as follows:
We operate on the 19th Nov on 2304.1,2320.1and 2424.1 on all bands we try
and stay +-20KHz
0200-0330 Eu to work the JAs and Ivo, ZS6AXT and other Europeans
0830-1030 Eu and ZS6 to work the USA ( and Europeans of course)
1800-1900 for the US/JA window
Constraints to watch for are W5LUA window start at 0900, ZS6AXT window ends
at 0945, F2TU only operates 2304-2306 .UK stations can only tx on 2320.
Let me know as soon as possible if there are problems with this, and
if/when we can agree I will ask Al if it can get into the NL. I hope that
this will result in a good crop of QSOs on 13 cm.
73 to all, Peter G3LTF
