I read this morning about your trip and I promptly forgot about it. But as
I am riding along route 66, I met some nice car with power ride signs, and
all came to my mind. I have only a TH-F7 with me, which I choose over the
TH-D7 as it has ssb hf reception (and is way smaller).
I will try to follow your schedule. What is your twitter account?
And by the way, which prefix letter should I add to my Italian callsign?
As far as I can understand, being currently in NM my callsign should be
IZ2QYZ/K5
