Greetings All...
We are setup for Field Day at the Sourdough Creek BLM
campground. This is about 35 miles north of Glennallen, Alaska in
grid square BP72fm. Looking at propagation charts, about the only
chance of a contact will be around 0200z on 20 meters. We can also
hope for an opening on six meters.
I received permission to put up full sized dipoles. A beam would be
better, but that sure beats the screwdriver. I'll be operating class
1B under my callsign. I never thought I would be cold on Field Day
weekend, but it is currently 40 degrees and raining. I heard a
report that it was snowing a little ways to the west...
