As we all know the NAQP is this Saturday. Single Ops are allowed to operate 10 of the 12 hours. I know that many east coast station operate the first 10 hours since the last two hours would keep them up to 2:00 AM (0600z) on Sunday morning. The only problem with this is that the west coast doesn’t even start to get dark until 8:00 PM (0300z). We won’t have any decent 80m/40m propagation until 9:00PM (0400Z) which is when a lot of east coast stations are ending their 10 hours of operating.
In order for us all to maximize band multiplies it would help us all out if you guys/gals on the east could also operate the next to last hour (0400-0500Z) of the contest on 40/80meters.
Also, to check propagation I will be on 28.085Mhz half an hour before the contest in case anyone wants to see if 10m is open. Once the contest starts I will QSY from this freq so no can say I am holding a freq or setting up a sked.
Hope to CU all there.
