Hello all fisherfolk....
K7ND and N7WA will push the Salmon upstream this coming weekend.
We hope to hit all 20 eastern Washington Counties though it
gets a bit tight Sunday (short day) and we'll need to do a county
line to get them all in. The schedule is a rough estimate.
I expect activity only on 20M and 40M during the day
and some 80M at night. Doesn't mean I won't check 15M
but it there hasn't been much life on that band lately.
I'll do 40M on the entry to each county to try and catch the
locals then transition to 20M. If it's a big county (>1hour),
I'll probably bounce back and forth.
Be running a KX3 with KPA100 and two antennas for quick
band changes. I have a fan for the KPA100 to alleviate the
overheating issues experienced during the 7QP. (I'll
bring ice packs too - just in case).
CW only. Phone just doesn't work mobile (though I
haven't actually tried the KX3 on SSB mobile.) Maybe
I'll bring a mic just in case I get bored.
Any county hunter needs a schedule, let me know. Though
cell phones don't always work too well in some of these
places, I'm willing to try.
cheers
dink, n7wa
