My XYL will be tied up with an on-line Yoga training the
weekend of April 9-10, so I figured this would be a good
excuse for a rove to the DM8x and DM9x grids! I am planning
to stay overnight near Lubbock (DM93) so can do a few late
night passes from that grid Friday, April 8, probably around
0400Z to 0500Z (4/9 UTC) or so.
Saturday morning will be some passes from DM93 and DM92
with the plan to be in DM82 around 1700Z to give AA4QE #488
from there. After a few DM82 passes I will start heading
north around 1900Z to DM83, do a few passes around 2000 to
2100Z from there, with the plan to be in DM84 around 2300Z to
give VE7CEW #488 from there. Will probably spend a couple of
hours in DM84 before heading to DM85, and will probably finish
the day there, most likely overnighting in DM95 around
Amarillo, so some possible later night passes from that grid.
Sunday will hopefully be DM86 for a few passes, then DM96
before starting the trip home. I should be able to do a few
passes from DM95 and DM94 on the way home as well.
Looking forward to working everyone who needs those grids.
If you need one of those grids for your last 5 towards the
Gridmaster, let me know and I will see what we can work out.
