[amsat-bb] WD9EWK @ DM32 - between 19 and 22 February 2015

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi!
While I am at the Yuma (Arizona) Hamfest, I will be near the rarely-heard
grid DM32. I will drive through it on Thursday (19 February) evening, and
drive home through it either on Saturday (21 February) evening or Sunday
(22 February) morning.  There is also a chance I can go out there Friday
(20 February) evening, since the western edge of DM32 isn't too far from
Yuma - only 35 miles/56km east.  I will try to post here on AMSAT-BB my
plans to operate from this grid, as well as on my @WD9EWK Twitter feed.
If you do not use Twitter, my @WD9EWK feed is accessible with a web
browser at:

I don't know for sure what passes I can work from there, but I will have a
listing of available passes. If the opportunity arises to work passes while
driving through DM32, I will try to do that. While on the road, APRS should
show my location using WD9EWK-9 as my call sign. This should be
visible online at:

among other sites.

As with my other trips, I will upload my log to Logbook of the World after
the weekend. If you would like a QSL card to confirm a QSO with me from
DM32, please e-mail me directly with the QSO details.  If you're in the log,
I will send you a QSL card. No need to first send me a QSL card.  I don't
normally collect cards for QSOs I make away from the Phoenix area, or
outside my 200km limit per the VUCC rules.

73!
