Hello group,

For tomorrow I am going to be activating two grids. The first site will be Glen Alps, at 1000 local. The second site will be Point Woronzof, at 1200.

I'm going to mainly be operating on 6 m, using a horizontal dipole. My first transmissions will be on 6 M FT8. After a bit I'll switch over to voice modes.

Other bands will be 2 M and 70 cm. I haven't had a lot of prep time, so I am going to use verticals for those bands, rather than the usual yagi stack. For two grids it isn't worth all the setup, since everyone within range of those grids can be worked with an omni antenna. (The yagis are most useful when operating from the Kenai, or up by Talkeetna.)

Hoping to hear everyone on the air.
Brandon
