Hi from cool FM19mg.
The rovermobile is nearly ready, thanks to some last minute
tweaking! Here's my shot at a tentative plan. The six digit
grids are guesses from a large scale road atlas--sorry!
1400L-1600L: FN30al? (Twin Lights lighthouse)
1630L-1830L: FN20xl? (Mount Mitchell overlook)
2000-2230: FN31aa Palisades area along 9W (too tall for Pkwy!)
2300-0030: FN21wa? GSP service area--if someone knows a
better place that is easy to get to and can support a 10.5' high
vehicle, 30 foot tower when stopped, please email me soon!
0030-0500 Sunday--long drive to Maryland, maybe a short stop in FN20--
anyone have a site idea near (I 295/ NJTP) ??
0500-0630 nap
0630-0800 FM29aa
0800-0930 FM19xa
0930-1100 FM18xx
1100-1230 FM28ax
(maybe pickup a driver for the 165 mile trip south so I can rest)
1230-1600 driving
1600-1800 FM27ab
1830-2000 FM17 on bridge
2030-2200 FM16 on bridge
2230-2300? FM26 if time and conditions permit.
No mountains this time...
50MHz: 500w and "moxon rectangle" thanks to N2MH
144MHz: 450w and 7 el or 2 x 7el if time
222MHz: 250w and 7 el
432MHz: 200w and 17 el (RIW 19 -- cut off last director and one reflector
uggh)
903MHz: 150w and half a 12' yagi
1296MHz: 60w and half a 10' yagi
2304MHz: 40w and short WIMO yagi
3456MHz: 5w and short looper (40w next time?)
5760MHz: 10w and 2' dish (receive performance is suspect)
10G: 3w and 2' dish working great!
24G: 250mw and 18" dish
Try 144.237 or 50.237 for coordination, please.
cell 443 756 5320 emergencies only, please.
I'll be on Long Island Friday all day, cell phone but no Internet.
73, good luck and good contesting!
