I am a solo rover, and would suggest you join my text list for one text
message from each location, and also you can follow me on the W3SZ.com
database. You can text me, but I hope it will be busy at each location.
Timing of all stops will be based on weather and travel conditions. I plan
to work phone from all of these locations FT8 will only be during the later
evenings.Please keep in mind that I do work many stations "on the go" from
overlook to overlook with a digital recorder. I will be on the air for the
full time other than setting up antennas at overlooks.
