I'll be operating NI6BB from the USS IOWA in San Pedro, California DM03 
from 1700 UTC to 2300 UTC.

I'm planning on working FO-29 on the 1838 and 2033 passes, and AO-7 on 
the 2210 pass out here.

If AO-27 is operational, I'll try the 1943 and 2120 passes.

There are two ISS passes, at 2052 and 2227, but I don't know what "mode" 
the ISS will be in.

There are no VO-52 or SO-50 passes available during the 4 hour window we 
have.

Hope to hear some of you!

73, Jim  KQ6EA
