Sure, but a lot depends on band conditions and there may be a lot going on
but not in your area. Don't know about the January contest, but in
spring, summer, and fall contests, a lot of guys go mobile to give out a
bunch of grid squares or go to high points to set up portable and cover
more area. I may get on the air Sunday if I hear anything.
