Hi Gang (particularly those in Europe):
My 15 year old son, Kevin KG6HMF, will hopefully
be QRU while traveling throughout the UK for the six
weeks or so. He has with him his just completed K1 #1652
(and the ATU and internal Battery setup from my K1), and
a MP-1 and a long wire antenna.
Wednesday morning 23 July (7am UK local time) we have
our first sked, on 14060 or thereabouts. While I think
it is a long shot for us to make contact (I'm on the West
Coast), I would greatly appreciate it if others on the
list (particularly EU stations) could look out for him and
perhaps QSP that I will keep looking for him at this sked
time in the days ahead. [Any suggestions for a better time
or frequency for a sked would be most welcome also]
Please note that he is a fairly new general and only has a
couple of actual CW contacts under his belt in total. So
the code will be SLOW. Hey, here's your chance to take
up a different sort of "DX challenge" :)
Any help, and any reports of "sightings" would be much
appreciated.
Thanks and 73
John, N6JW
K1 #754
K2 #3290 (in assembly stage III)
PS The weather does not look all that promising
for campers for the next week or so :) Oh well . . .
