[amsat-bb] Operating from Arizona and California (13-15 December 2019)

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi!

I will be on the road tomorrow, heading to California. On my way there,
I will stop on the DM23/DM24 grid boundary in western Arizona to work
some passes. I plan on working passes between 1600 and at least 1900
UTC, before resuming my drive. I was just out there a few weekends ago,
but wanted to put this spot on the air again since I would be passing
through the area. My drive should be visible on APRS as WD9EWK-9, at
web sites like:

Over the weekend, I will work passes from two different locations in
southern California. I previously posted the plans for "Ham Radio Day
Aboard the Queen Mary" on Saturday, 14 December 2019. Endaf N6UTC and I
will work passes as W6RO between 1700 UTC and 0100 UTC (9am-5pm Pacific
time) from the Sports Deck on the RMS Queen Mary, next to the W6RO
Wireless Room. More information about this event is available at:

On Sunday, 15 December 2019, Endaf N6UTC and I will go north of the
Los Angeles area to the DM04/DM05/DM14/DM15 (35.0 N 118.0 W) grid
intersection. We plan on working passes for a few hours out there,
starting with an AO-92 pass around 1740 UTC.

I will upload my QSOs as WD9EWK to Logbook of the World, and N6UTC
also uses LOTW. W6RO does not use LOTW, but will issue QSL cards
following the procedure at:

The Queen Mary is in grid DM03.
The QSO number mentioned on this page is not required for satellite
QSOs.

73!
