[Fourlanders] FW: [SVHFSList] K4AMK/R September Plans (SE US)

Tue Sep 7 08:40:07 PDT 2010

After looking at your post closer, I see that you have K4IDC listed.  I 
guess I just looked at the "K".  It's hard to say who is roving with who.  4 
of the antennas are mine & 3 are Robin's.  We each have a radio in the mix. 
We will be in my truck.  Is this a coop?

We will be on 6,2,70cm underway.  We will be on 6,2,1.25,70cm,23cm while 
stopped.

We will head east in KY through EM66,67,76,77,87,  south on 75 to Knoxville 
through EM86 & 76.  Sunday we will head back west through EM85, 75, 65.

Fred, N4GER

>> It is with great honor, joy, excitement, and respect that I present to
>> you the plans for the maiden rove of the K4AMK/R Station in the 2010
>> ARRL September QSO Party.
>>
>> As a Limited Rover in the contest I will be active on all four of the
>> lower bands (SSB - ABCD, FM - BCD).  Given that this will be my first
>> rove in the Southeastern US, I have decided to take a "Run and Gun"
>> approach to this contest.  More information about my plans can be found
>> on my website, http://www.k4amk.us. (See disclaimer below)
>>
>> Unfortunately, I am unable to estimate "times" for a schedule.  I can
>> tell you that depending on activity level, we will be parked in each
>> grid for a minimum of 20mins.  If we are working people, we will stay
>> longer, but if we are listening to static then we will continue on our
>> way to the next grid.  APRS is enabled for stations to track us to
>> compensate for the lack of a more detailed schedule with approximate
>> times.
>>
>> Obviously QRM may cause these to change slightly, but the game plan is
>> to primarily operate on 50.135 and 144.210.  While idle, the other
>> radios will be monitoring on 222.1 and 432.1 for SSB, and 146.55, 223.5,
>> and 446.00 for FM.
>>
>> Saturday
>>
>> For Saturday, we will start in NE EM63 and make our way through
>> Chattanooga, Knoxville, and ending the day in Bristol, TN where we will
>> rest.  The grids we will activate:
>> EM63/EM64/EM74/EM75/EM76/EM85/EM86/EM96
>>
>> Sunday
>>
>> For Sunday, we will start at 6am in EM96 and head over to Wytheville, VA
>> where we will turn and head south.  We will be making our way over to
>> Greensboro, NC and then turning to go to Charlotte, NC.  From there
>> south to Columbia, SC and then west toward Atlanta.  The goal is to end
>> the contest just outside of Atlanta in EM73.  The grids we will
>> activate:  EM96/FM06/FM05/EM95/EM94/EM93/EM83/EM73
>>
>> Total Grid effort planned:  15
>>
>> I do hope that you will look for me during the contest.  Again for more
>> information about these plans, my website is http://www.k4amk.us.  I am
>> also on Twitter. (See Disclaimer below)
>>
>> 73 and good luck to everyone in the contest!

>> Please note that in accordance to the ARRL Rules (both literally and in
>> spirit), no updates to my website regarding the contest will be made
>> within a 12 hour window of the start of the contest, or during.  Any
>> possible "tweets" made during the contest will be general comments about
>> the on-going experience, but will NEVER include Frequency information,
>> operating location, or solicitation of QSO's. Of course, the hope is
>> that I will be so busy logging contacts that the thought of posting a
>> tweet will never even enter my mind.
