What a\n> great trip with 1,140 contacts in the log (over 900 already with\n> confirmations in LoTW).\n>\n> The trip started out very well filling in many holes in holes in many\n> people's 488 maps in DN land and a bit of EN land.\n>\n> After crossing the border, many never before heard grids were activated.\n> The real fun began after crossing the 60th Parallel into the Northwest\n> Territories and into DP land, a field that most people had never worked.\n>\n> The conditions were great, temperatures weren't absurd (don't get me wrong,\n> still damn cold). The Winter Roads I did get on were great (lots of fun\n> working from the Detah Winter Road on Great Slave Lake in DP22). Nothing\n> greater than working across the Atlantic while on an ice road under the\n> northern lights... DP00 was definitely the most absurd grid I visited, on\n> the Trout Lake Winter Road. Next time I'll have to go further and get into\n> CP90.\n>\n> Everything seemed to go very well up until around day three in VE8 when all\n> of my coax jumpers began acting up. I still managed to get on some passes\n> with this setup and make some great contacts. It eventually got bad enough\n> where I had one jumper that seemed to work alright and the whip on my car\n> and used that for 2m, basically limiting me to FO-29 (where I was very\n> quiet most of the time).\n>\n> Upon getting into BC, John K8YSE found Tim VE7XIX (former VE5SAT, AC2GK). I\n> met up with Tim in Fort Saint John, BC and he had everything we needed to\n> make a temporary repair on two of my jumpers. Thanks to Tim the portion\n> between BC and Portland, OR was saved (solder and lots of gorilla tape).\n>\n> Upon reaching Oregon and California, thanks to Clayton W5PFG and Steve N9IP\n> I was able to get some new coax jumpers.\n>\n> The drive down the coast and through the desert was great, many rare grids\n> activated. A memorable time was driving through LA and listening to the\n> 147.435 repeater and checking into the \"Bong Hit Net\" at 4:20PM.\n>\n> It was great to meet many hams throughout the trip, in both the US and\n> Canada. Especially fun was attending the Palm Springs Hamfest and meeting\n> many SoCal sat ops (and a certain displaced 9 lander). My buddy Ethan also\n> passed his tech at at the hamfest and will soon be KE0xxx and hopes to get\n> on the birds soon. Was great to meet John K8YSE in Mesa and get EN91 as a\n> /r grid (easiest /r grid I've ever gotten).\n>\n> All contacts are uploaded to LoTW. If you are missing anything, now would\n> be a good time to start emailing. Big thanks to Dave KG5CCI, Fernando\n> NP4JV, and Paul N8HM for being my QSL managers. Those three received my\n> logs via Iridium messages and uploaded. If you enjoyed receiving instant\n> QSLs from the sub-Arctic out of range of any terrestrial networks, thank\n> those three, it wouldn't have been possible without them.\n>\n> Thanks to all for all the contacts, it was a ton of fun and I look forward\n> to the next one (I'm itching to use V31NJ, hint hint)!\n>\n> 73,\n> Gabe\n> NJ7H\n> _______________________________________________\n> Sent via [email protected].
