I've got something for 15M. It has 3W out on 21.060. I will use the vertical that I usually bring.

Hope band conditions are as good as the weather is supposed to be.
Ed has asked me to put together a 40 meter dipole to go along with the
Mountaineer from last year. I'll bring the RockMite, just for fun.
