Hello,
Today NK8Q, Mark and I will be hiking about 1/2 hour on the Appalachian
Trail somewhere north of Allentown, PA. We should both be on the air around
19:00 UTC and will be there until 23:59 UTC.
There is a RTTY contest going on today so if the usual QRP frequencies are
filled with RTTY, look for us a little lower in the band.
Look for Mark de NK8Q on 40, 30 and 20 meters with his Elecraft KX1 and
possibly his Rockmite 40.
Look for Ron de WB3AAL on 80, 40, 30, 20, 15 and maybe 12m with my Elecraft
K2.
If 20 meters is busy around the QRP freq. with RTTY, look for me around
14.030 or lower.
I have 926 QSO from the AT now with 48 States under my key. Still looking
for HI and MT. I also have 24 countries under the key and last time out I
worked into Europe with no problems.
If you work either Mark or I, please spot us on the DX Cluster and or the
e-mail list. This is the last outing for the 2007/2008 season of the Polar
Bear Moonlight Madness. Hope to see a moon tonight.
Weather now in around freezing with snow coming down. Up in the area we will
be hiking the snow is a littler heavier. The system is to be clearing out
later in the afternoon.
So look for mark de NK8Q PB #4 or Ron de WB3AAL PB #1 from the Appalachian
trail later today.
72 and Thanks,
