Due to surrounding states still having quarantine rules in place,
KG6CIH/R will be sticking to an NH-only rove this time. And
because there's really only so many places to go in NH, it's going
to be a Sunday-only rove. My stops are as follows:
Sunday:
* FN33xi - 1200z - 1330z
This is a dead end in a neighborhood mear Mount Sunapee with very
good views to the north and west. I should be able to easily work
microwaves in those directions, perhaps some to the south too.
* FN34xb - 1500z - 1630z
This is a middle school in Haverhill NH. I don't know what to expect
from this location. I might leave early.
* FN44fi - 1730z - 1900z
This is a scenic pull off on NH 115. There's big views to the north
and west. I should be able to easily work microwaves into Vermont and
Canada.
* FN43cx - 2000z - 2130z
This is a "scenic" pull off on NH 118. There is visibility to the
south and mountains directly to the north.
* AF1T's house - 2300z
Just stopping long enough to work him on a bunch of microwave bands.
* FN42gw - 0000z until I get bored
This is a Lowes parking lot in Bedford NH with good visibility to
the north and buildings blocking to the south. I should be able
to work people north and east on microwaves.
Gear is as follows:
* 6m - 100w, moxon
* 2m - 50w, 7el
* 1.25m - 135w, 10el
* 70cm - 35w, 15el
* 33cm - 3w, 11el
* 23cm - 2w, 14el
* 13cm - 2w, 27el
* 9cm - 3w, 45el
I'll be on SSB and CW if needed, no digital modes in the car. I won't
be monitoring any chat pages. If you think you'll be able to work me
from any of these spots, I'd be happy to privately share my phone
number. Even with the shorter rove, I think this should still be lots
of fun!
