Got exemption from ARRL rules to carpool in single rover with 2 separate
stations.
N6UTC and I went to the Grapevine exit on I-5 in the Central Valley. I worked
W6YEP at W6TV both bands for some good points. Only worked K6MI/R at one of his
stops, due to bad propagation. Locals in the valley were speculating that bad
prop was due to the smoke from the fire. Went to DM05 to work a few more.
Spent Sunday morning in Diamond Bar for DM13 and DM14. Tnx to WA6EJO for the
very long-haul QSOs to Santa Barbara!
First time I've ever roved for this. Probably the last time, because NAQP is
much more fun. 222+ needs some serious rule tweaks:
1. Change time from 0000z Sunday (Saturday afternoon local) to 2359z, to
mostly avoid the conflict with NAQP CW. Or switch to different weekend.
2. Create limited 4 band classes for Rovers and Fixed. This would be
low power and would include 222, 432, 902 and 1.2 ghz.
