[amsat-bb] Re: WD9EWK @ DM31 on Saturday (18 December)

Hi again!

A folow-up to the message I posted yesterday afternoon... I forgot to mention
that I would be running APRS for the drive down to DM31 and back, and while
I am in that area.  While working satellites, I will turn off that
radio, and try to
keep it on in between the passes.  I am going to use WD9EWK-9 as my
APRS call this time, with my TH-D72A for APRS for its first real workout on
APRS instead of my VX-8GR.  Among other places online, WD9EWK-9
should be visible at:

I know there are some APRS digipeaters north and east of Lukeville, but
don't know if the mountains to the north will block them.  I know that my
cell phone works down there from my previous trip, with a cell site very
close to the border, so I will be able to post something to the -BB when
I get down there.

73!
