I'm still planning my portable expedition to the border of Washington
and Scott counties.
Due to weather considerations.... I'm scaling back a bit, but will
still be on.
The forecast is for rain, rain, rain, and thunder storms..... And even
better, cold temps too! So, I'm going to abandon the tent and sleeping
bag idea, and stay in my truck. I should still be able to get the
dipoles in the trees from the back corner of the parking lot, then run
the feed lines to my truck where it will be warm and dry:-) Then, at
contest end, I can pull in the wires and head for home. The parking lot
is not very busy this time of year anyway, and particularly with this
weather, so it should be OK for me to operate from.
I will miss the camp out, but the weather will just be nasty here, which
would likely make for a miserable trip.
Will be listening on the "intercom" frequency, 146.49 FM simplex full time.
Hope to work everyone! Hey, what else is there to do on a cold, rainy
day! Get on the air and have some fun:-)
