Look towards central Iowa, EN32FH, I'll be on 6m 2m, and 432 with roof
top antennas Saturday afternoon and evening, Sunday morning (not very
early) and the rest of Sunday, weather permitting. NWS forecast this
morning is for a Low pressure to move in Sunday with freezing drizzle
possible Sunday morning and heavier rain Sunday afternoon. Last night
one TV forecastor thought there might be thunderstorms Sunday afternoon.
If I hear thunder I'll be off the air with antennas disconnected. There
might be some chances of enhanced propagation along fronts.
I'll be calling CQ mostly on CW because the FT-857D has programmable CW
beacons built in. I'll answer calls on SSB too, and CW calls from 5 to
29 wpm. I have problems sending below 12 by hand though.
73, Jerry, K0CQ
