[Elecraft] Appalachian Trail QRP Backpacking Quartet

[John Harper]

Participants: N7UN, WA3WSJ, AE5X, NK1N

The first 3 ops (above) will start the hike early on Friday June 2 (along 
the way, we will hike over Wireless Mountain). After 11 miles, we'll camp & 
get on the air. I'll have my 20-40m KX1 & an inverted V - not sure what the 
others will have but I think 2 of them will have K1's.

On Saturday morning we'll begin the next leg of our hike, 12.5 miles to our 
next campsite. At this campsite we will be joined by NK1N and will be on the 
air after setting up.

The next morning (June 4) will probably include some on-the-air operation as 
this days' hike is only 5.5 miles. This hike will take us to the end of our 
trip at the highest point in New Jersey, imaginatively named High Point. We 
may or may not get on the air from here.

It's tough to be more specific about operating times since our pace is 
impossible to know, given the trail condition, weather, etc. but evenings 
will be "radioactive" as much as possible. Wx for Friday & Friday night 
calls for a strong chance of scattered thunderstorms but the trip is "on" 
anyway. Keep an ear out for us.
