Hello all:  Along with Tom, KV2X, in NY, I will be a QRP Fox tonight 
local date, 0200-0330 Friday UTC, on 40 meters.  Frequencies will be 
between 7040 and 7050, as usual.  I will be using my FT1000MP at 5W 
output and a coax fed half wave 40M dipole at 50 feet.  I will start out 
split and will probably go simplex when the pile up dies down.  When 
listening split, I will send "up" and when I stop sending "up," I will 
be listening simplex.  40M has been going long early recently, so I will 
try for the east coast stations first, but with no alternate antenna to 
select, I will be answering the ones I hear first.  Exchange will be 
real RST, GA, JOHN, 5W.

Callers must use no more than 5W output and work only the two foxes. 
All information can be found by a Google search for "QRP Fox Hunts."

Hope to work many of you tonight and Happy New Year to all.

73/72, John, K4BAI.
