[Elecraft] K1 on the AT in PA on Saturday

[Ron Polityka]

Hello,

 On Saturday around 16:00 or 17:00 UTC I might be out on the Appalachian
Trail with my K1. This all depends on what kind or how much of a snow fall
we receive tonight. The high temperature might only be in the mid 20's with
10 to 15 MPH winds. The wind chill could be 2'F and -6'F depending on the
wind. This will be a good test for cold wx and the K1. I plan on keeping the
batteries in my jacket so the cold does not kill the power too quick. I
might be able to use my snow shoes for once.  :-)  I will post my finally
plans around 15:00 UTC. I am using this for my FYBO testing session. If all
works out as planned I will be out for the FYBO contest next month, that is
if the temp stays down below freezing.

72 and Thanks,
Ron Polityka
