Hello all:
Happy weekend here for us. Our son, Whit, is getting married to a
wonderful young lady. Contesting will have to take a back seat. But,
on Tuesday, Jeff, KU8E and I are flying back to Bonaire for a ham radio
vacation. With Randy, W8FN, we will be QRV before and after CQ WW CW as
PJ4/home calls and during the contest, PJ4LS, Hans, will join us and we
will be M/S as PJ4A. QSL all calls except PJ4LS via K4BAI. It seems
likely that we will be able to be QRV in the CWTs and the NCCC NS dupes
OK session during our trip also. We will try to be QRV outside the
contest on 160 and 80 CW especially at night and 10 CW during the day.
I will also try to be QRV on the WARC bands. Most of this will be CW,
but if you need a schedule on SSB, you can e-mail us. We should all be
able to receive e-mails there. I don't think anyone will be QRV on any
digital modes this trip. Hope everyone receiving this message will
participate in the CQ WW CW. Remember to include your club name in the
Cabrillo header, since there is a club aggregate score competition as well.
