[50mhz] Update: CP1GJ in FH53kt

[Lance Collister, W7GJ]

Finally - GOOD NEWS!!!

I just received word that my callsign will be CP1GJ. I leave this Sunday morning 
before dawn. All the details are on my web page at:

http://www.bigskyspaces.com/w7gj/Bolivia%202019.htm

The grassy area where I plan to put up the antenna has free-ranging alpacas, but the 
hotel manager said he could tie them to prevent them from stepping on the coax or 
disturbing the antenna aiming lines coming down to the ground.  ;-)

JT65A with Deep Search still seems to be the best choice for EME, as long as the 
callers are in my call3.txt file (which I seem to be updating every day recently!), 
so I will be transmitting first sequence JT65A on 50.190. I am tentatively planning 
on using the most recently released version of WSJT-X, for the most sensitive - and 
now the fastest - decoding. As I explained on my CP web page, my WSJT-X "offset" will 
be 1271 Hz, so I am at DF=0 for WSJT10 users. People should call me + and - 1000 Hz, 
and ideally they should spread out every 200 Hz (taking their doppler shift into 
account).

Please coordinate your calling frequencies using the ON4KST EME CHAT page:

Remember, I will be using the W7GJ DXpedition procedure. If this is your first rodeo, 
PLEASE PLEASE read my web page!!!

I don't think I will have a very good horizon or quiet moonrise, but I know 
horizon-only stations in eastern NA only have a window with me then. So I will try, 
and it may be OK at some azimuths, but I am not counting on much for my moonrise. I 
have asked the EU stations to try to avoid my moonrise, to provide a clear window for 
the East Coast NA stations. We will see how bad my moonrise situation is and I will 
try to announce it after I get set up. If you copy me on JT65A via some ionospheric 
mode while I am on the moon, please call me on JT65A with shorthand messages just 
like it was an EME contact.

When I am not on the moon, I will try to monitor FT8 on 50.313 toward NA. If you 
think you have propagation to me on FT8, please give me a call! If I am sleeping, I 
will hear JTALERT wake me up when it hears my callsign ;-) I will try to get on the 
internet at least once a day to update my log of stations worked.

Wish me luck getting set up at 12,500' after traveling 30 hours without sleep. Please 
also be understanding if it takes me a little longer to get set up than usual! GL to 
all, and I am hoping I can provide a new DXCC to many of you Magic Banders!

VY 73, Lance
