[amsat-bb] CJ7EWK/3 road trip update

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi!

After spending Sunday at Point Pelee National Park, the
southernmost point on the Canadian mainland in grid EN81, I
made it up to Toronto this afternoon. I made a stop to visit
Pierre VE3KTB, one of the VY0ERC crew who worked satellites
from the Canadian Arctic. Had lunch with him, too. Great
guy! After that, I made it to the traffic of Canada's largest
city. I was able to work some SO-50 and AO-92 passes from
the FN03/FN04 grid boundary in Aurora, Ontario - north of
Toronto. Not much radio today, but it helped to make Monday
a (mostly) driving day.

Tentative plans for Tuesday... probably staying around Toronto.
I may be able to return to the FN03/FN04 grid boundary for
some daytime passes. I probably won't leave the Toronto area
until the evening. I'm looking to get into grid FN14 either
Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning for passes, as that grid
is still one that appears to be in demand. Please follow my
@WD9EWK Twitter feed, or visit http://twitter.com/WD9EWK for
updates. APRS is working up here in Ontario, so you can also
see where I'm going at http://aprs.fi/WD9EWK-9 in a web
browser.

73!
