On the way to WI will activate MI, IN, IL After the Central States meeting I plan to go to MN, ND, MT, WY, SD, UT, CO, AZ, NM during August. Plan to do many rare grids in these states From September 20 - 24 I plan to be in Ohio. On the way to OH I will activate NE, KS, MO and rare grids I plan to operate 2M, 222, 70cm and 23cm EME. I may not be on all bands at each stop however I plan at least two bands on each activation stop. I will also operate 6M, 2M and 222 MS. I will be on 6M FT8 and SSB also if the band is wide open. My stations are fully tested and everything is packed in my truck and RV. In the next two weeks before leaving I will be working on my backup station equipment for 2M and 23cm. I will spare exciters and PAs for most bands. And of course a box full of preamps :-). On the trip last Summer I didn't fry a single preamp. If you need specific states to complete WAS on 2M - 23cm, if you like send an email to my gmail account petervanh143@gmail.com. I will attempt to operate on requested bands at each stop. |
