Busy day with 11 passes today from three grids: QK66 on CAS-4A/4B at midday and RS-44 in the late afternoon, then QK65 on the next RS-44 pass, and finally QK55 in the evening on CAS-4A, XW-2A, and IO-86 plus two passes on both JO-97 and
CAS-4B.
Tomorrow is our last full day underway; we'll arrive at Saipan (QK25) on Tuesday. I should be able to get on from QK35 on CAS-4A/4B at 10/0239-0300Z (midday LT). After that, our speed will change as we get closer to the island, so it's
hard to predict the time schedule for the last few grids except that we'll pass through QK34 and QK24 before arriving in QK25. I'll be on the usual passes in the late afternoon and evening and leave the grid ID to the ship's GPS at the time. 73/Jim, ND9M
