I plan a Summits on the Air (SOTA) activation of Rib Mountain W9/WI-004
on Thursday, July 21.
Karl WD9BGA and I will attempt some DX contacts from his Blue Mounds
State Park location in the morning, starting perhaps around 8:30 am.
I will operate SSB (and maybe CW depending on conditions) on:
* 2m at 144.200 MHz
* 70cm at 432.100 MHz
* 23cm at 1296.100 MHz
For operations on VHF, UHF and microwave frequencies, scheduling works
well. For my partners operating on 20m and 40m, spotting via SOTAWatch
is preferable.
We communicate prior to the attempted transmissions via a 2 meter
backbone, either the statewide, linked WECOMM on 2m or the Wisconsin
Interstate Network (WIN) on 70cm.
I am looking for any others who are available on Thursday and would like
to schedule a QSO on one of these bands. You can also get SOTA Chaser
points, if you wish, at http://www.sota.org.uk/ by logging me in the
database.
