Sounds great, Barry!  Come Tuesday .... I'm hoping for prop to DN07!  GL.

I’m driving into northern Idaho to light up grids for FFMA and anyone else on 6 meters:

  * *DN27*bn – Sunday 7/21
  * *DN26*gg – Monday 7/22
  * *DN07*pc – Tuesday 7/23

I’ll have high power, a big antenna and good mountaintops; 6m only.

This trip is only coincidentally on the 2019 CQ WW VHF contest. So if you want DN27 in the contest, come find me on Sunday around 50.313 FT8 or if the band opens up then 50.125+ ssb/cw.

One day = one grid. My goal is to work as many people as possible so I’ll spend as much time as I can at each spot. This means at 10 am – 4 pm Pacific at a minimum. This gives me time to move the next grid for the next day and find a good spot. (Hey, how the heck do those rovers activate a big handful of grids every day?? I bet they don’t 4wd crawl up mountains to lookout towers!)

Track me on APRS at www.aprs.fi/k7bwh <http://www.aprs.fi/k7bwh>

DN26-27 are remote Idaho mountains in or near a big Indian reservation. Lolo Pass and Hwy 12 is scenic and marvelously uncluttered by cellphone towers; please spot me if you hear me.

If I have internet, I’ll announce when I’m on the air to the email reflectors and vhf-chat Slack channel https://vhf-chat.slack.com/. Text messages to my cellphone is preferred. I give preference to people who tell me their six-digit grid square. Don’t make me guess who/where you are! You won’t like me when you make me guess your callsign or location, lol.
