TXQP: WA8GHZ/M/5 Draft Route
From: jdougher@wt.net (WA8GHZ)
Ebanos is a human powered ferry boat across the RiyoGrahnday that the
XYL has her heart on riding. About 8 guys pull this barge (that holds 2
autos) across the 75-yard river by pulling/man-handling a 3-inch thick
rope - Quite a sight, and hope to experience it Sat. night or Sunday
morning. If we're not on the air Sunday A.M., I'll be searching for a
radio-equipped GMC pickup with antennae on the bottom of the
river.......
So general plan is to start TXQP at 9AM Saturday from Victoria, drive
South to McAllen, then turn back North for possible Sat. night in Rio
Grande City on the border. Then, Sunday, back North in a circle to
Victoria and Houston. Any extra time, we'll double back to catch the
odd neighboring county.
COUNTY PLAN (in order):
Victoria
Refugio
San Patricio
Nueces
Jim Wells
Brooks
Hidalgo
Starr (OVERNIGHT SAT. STOP)
============================================
Zapata
Jim Hogg
Duval
McMullen
Live Oak
Bee
Goliad
Victoria
Jackson
Wharton
Fort Bend
Harris (Houston)
BAND PLAN: Mostly 20M unless 10 opens good.
RIG PLAN:
IC-706, Bug-Catcher, Worth-More 400W Amp, Key by Kent, K-3 Keyer by
Idiom Press, and Maybe EQF logging if my new laptop isn't a QRN
generator :)
Plan on 400 Watt CW Ops with the longest call sign in the event. Will
post any last minute changes to the plan.
