Sounds good, make sure you schedule the DX to be turned on. I can normally talk this side of the Mississippi river, and on occasion a lot farther.
I’ve made it Coast to coast but lately been limited to the southwest or PNW....occasionally Colorado. Damn sun!!!
Here are the rules for the contest. any errors let me know.

There has been 11 metre contests via this forum for years now.
Hmmm...just saw the rules. I know it’s the honor system but I am sure some ham will use a ham radio that puts out more then 12w. So ok...it will be the honor system. Barefoot...wink wink.
Yeah, it'll count me out as I don't currently run a standard cb on the base. Maybe if I can get the ranger 797 set up but there's time constraints on my end.
cb operator? no amps? play by the rules? hahahahaHAHAHAHA
