[Elecraft] QRP DX - Feb 19

[hank k8dd]

YN - Nicaragua Feb 17 - 24  Hank, K8DD (YN2DD); Stan, AC8W (YN2WW);
Lee, N8LJ (YN2LJ) and Jim, KB8TXZ (YN2TX) will be active on all
bands/modes.  In the ARRL DX CW contest using the call YN2DD.  Check
QRZ.COM for QSL information.

That said ..... As I have done for the past trips to the DX side, the
Thursday night (Feb 19 local time) before the contest I will be on 40
meters QRP about the time the Fox Hunt is over.  Normally I try to
find a QRP frequency close to 7040 and call CQ QRP and stick around as
long as there are QRP callers.
The Fox Hunts run until 2230 Eastern Time, which is 0330Z.

And if possible, I will try to get on either 17 or 20 M on Monday.
18095 or 14060.
We should have internet access, so I will try to get an announcement
out close to Thur the 19th and then on Mon the 23rd.
The rig should be a K3 (a K2 for backup)
And the antennas are:
40 meter 2 el quad fixed on 30 deg
17 meter 2 el quad rotatable
20 meter A3 tribander rotatable

Please do not spot the Thursday night QRP schedule on the DX Clusters!!
