From W3DHJ at jonz.net Mon Jul 11 13:02:53 2016 From: W3DHJ at jonz.net (Jonesy W3DHJ) Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2016 11:02:53 -0600 (MDT) Subject: [Rover] W3DHJ/R CQ WW VHF Message-ID: I will be returning from a trip around mid-day on Saturday. So, I don't see how I can get on the road for the contest until 2000-2100Z. As a result, I will activate just DM77 and DM78 on Saturday -- from a high mesa about 20 miles S.E. of Pueblo, CO. On Sunday I will operate close in to the intersection of 38 N and 104 W -- grids DM78, DM77, DM87, & DM88 -- in that sequence -- about 50 miles E.S.E. of Pueblo. Pointing a beam at those coordinates would place me inside the 3 dB points of your antenna.

On both days I will operate close in to the intersection of 38 N and 104 W -- grids DM88, DM87, DM77, & DM78 -- which will be Saturday's sequence. On Sunday I will do the reverse sequence. Pointing a beam at those LAT/LONG coordinates would place me inside the 3 dB points of your antenna. SAT #1: DM88bb: 1800z~2030z. SAT #2: DM87bw. 2030~2300z. SAT #3: DM77xw. 2300~0030z. SAT #4: DM78xa. 0030~????z. SUN #1: DM78xa. 1230z~1400z. SUN #2: DM77xw. 1400z~1630z. SUN #3: DM87bw. 1630z~1900z. SUN #4: DM88bb. 1900z~2100z. Those times are Best Guesses.
