    "content": "I have thought about doing the reverse VUCC.  I think that is the correct \nname.  I think I will slowly work towards that, but my main enjoyment from \nportable operations is getting to confirm to new grids for others, along \nwith sightseeing, using new equipment, meeting weird people, ;-) designing \nQSLs, etc.\n\nAnyhow, thanks for all of the replies everyone.  This answers my questions.\n\n73!\n\nZack\nKD8KSN\n\n-----Original Message----- \nFrom: Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)\nSent: Monday, April 25, 2011 1:20 PM\nTo: [email protected]\nSubject: [amsat-bb] Re: VUCC, grids, and a new QTH\n\nZack,\n\n> Your response does confirm what I thought the answer was.

You'll be able to say you have satellite VUCC,\nalong with any other awards, regardless of where you were and where\nyou are now,\n\n> VUCC is one aspect of it,\n> but how about the day to day grid collecting.

You would\njust have to keep track of which grids you worked from each location.\n\nOther awards have other limitations.  K5OE mentioned some other awards in\nhis recent post.\n\n> I also know it is 200km - I was confusing it with 124mi.  ;-)\n\nI thought that was the case, but wanted to ensure we were referring to the\nproper limit for a satellite VUCC.\n\n> BTW, I am not considering moving to SC (no offense to SC residents).  If I\n> had to move somewhere other than OH it would be CO.\n\nIf you travel a lot to some other location, you could attempt to get awards\nlike a satellite VUCC away from home.  I am gradually doing that for \nnorthern\nBaja California as XE2/WD9EWK and Vancouver as VA7EWK.  I know it will\ntake more trips to both places (and, for Mexico, more contributions to the\nMexican federal treasury every time I get a new XE permit) to get 100 grids\nconfirmed.  For a Phoenix-based satellite VUCC (whenever that application\nis ever processed), I know I can operate from portions of 6 grids including \nthe\ncity park on the DM33xp/DM43ap grid boundary I typically operate from and\nremain within the 200km limit.  Other road trips are for the enjoyment of\nworking stations and confirming QSOs with those stations, even though I\ncan't count the QSOs toward a Phoenix-based satellite VUCC.  Then again,\nif I accumulated confirmations for 100 grids from places like DM31, I could\napply for another satellite VUCC for that location.\n\n73!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK\nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\n\n_______________________________________________\nSent via [email protected].
