We have\ntraveled 2300 miles and operated in at least 18 grids and\nhave made 888 contacts on 65 passes. We have been camping in our tent\nfor the last 9 nights but tonight it is windy and raining\nso the motel was a good choice. Monday we should operate in\nEN38 and possibly EN28 late in the day.\n\nNew grids that were not part of the plan were EO20 (today)\nand EO31, Red Lake Ontario, as far north as the roads go. We\nhave operated on two grid lines. There are very few grid\nlines that have a good shot at the sky. There are hills and\ntrees most everywhere. Northwest Ontario is a beautiful and\nfor the most part unspoiled land. Lakes are everywhere and\nusually provide a shot at the sky if you can find a road that\ndoesn't have a barrier of trees.\n\nThe equipment is working very well. SatPC32 is controlling\nthe radio and the rotor (with the LVB tracker) and not missing\na beat. The only casualty has been the 5 el 2 meter Mosley beam.\nTwo of the directors have broken off One was repaired using copper\nwire and a inline crimp connector. The other one was replaced with\na brass rod found at a Home Depot in Thunder Bay. We have been down\nsome really rough dirt roads to get to these grids off the beaten\npath and the antenna is constantly vibrating. The UHF 7x7 Arrow\nis holding up well.\n\nWeather has been warm for the most part and not much rain at night.\nWe have had some rain during our travels but it has not affected\nthe satellite activity since the only thing you need to do before\neach pass is to orient the antenna north. After that you are in\nthe truck. The antenna setup in the truck is a magnet for questions.\nEveryone wants to know what it's for. Tuesday we will camp in EN48.\nWednesday it will be EN58 briefly and EN57 back in the US. This is\nsubject to change if we see something that we want to take in.\n\nI am trying to work stations as quickly as possible. The record is\n26 contacts on an AO-51 pass but it is not unusual to work over 20\nstations. AO-27 is not as productive since I can't hear it\nwhen it turns on being so far north. HO-68 netted some nice\ncontacts including OH8MBN. I have not made any contacts on AO-7.\nA few contacts have been made on FO-29 and VO-52.\n\nThanks to the AO-51 control team for keeping things running, and\nto Alan Kung for scheduling HO68 for central North American passes.\n\nIf you have any special requests, send them to KD8CAO. We have\na daily sked on 40 meters.\n\n73,\nJohn K8YSE/VE3\nEN29\n\n", "attachments": [] }
