Hello & Happy Trail Days,

7 June 2008 is the National Trail Days in the U.S.A.

http://www.americanhiking.org/NTD.aspx

Mark de NK8Q and I, Ron de WB3AAL, will be out on the Appalachian Trail on 
Saturday.

We plan to meet at 7 AM or 11:00 UTC and make our way to The Pinnacle that 
is South on the AT from Eckville, PA.

When we arrive at the parking lot at 11:00 UTC we will decide if we will 
hike to The Pinnacle, highest spot on the AT in Berks County PA or go to 
another location. This spot is very popular and becomes very crowded on nice 
days.

We should be on the air between 8:30 AM or 12:30 UTC and 9:00 AM or 13:00 
UTC.

I, WB3AAL, will be using my K1 on the 21.060, 14.060, 10.106 or 10.116 and 
7.030 or 7.040 Mhz.

Mark, NK8Q, will be using his KX1 on 14.060, 10.106 or 10.116 and 7.030 or 
7.040 Mhz. Mark will also be taking some Rockmites for 7.030 / 7.040 and 
14.060.

We will stay on the air until the QSO die off or until 12 noon or 16:00 UTC. 
The wx is to be very hot and humid in EPA land. Mid 90's and high humidity.

So if you are up and about look for us on the HF CW bands. If you work us 
please spot us on the X Clusters and / or the e-mail list.

72 and Thanks,
Ron Polityka
