Hi!
I talked with Ron W6ZQ this evening, and he said he is now on the "big island" of Hawaii. He has a decent pass of AO-51 tomorrow (Tuesday) evening that covers the US west coast starting around 4.30pm Hawaii time (7.30pm Pacific time, or 0230 UTC Wednesday). He is not sure which grid he will be operating from, so you'll have to find out tomorrow evening.
As Ron's vacation is nearing its end, this will probably be his only time on the radio from the island of Hawaii on this trip. Whatever grid he comes on from, it is probably not a grid heard very much on the mainland. Good luck to all who try to work W6ZQ tomorrow evening.
73!
