Thanks to the dedicated efforts of Ron, N8RO I've managed to work two new grids today, including EN76. Both on FO-29, but I'm sure Ron has also been active on SO-50---so if you're chasing grids be sure to listen for him. Can't thank him enough for activating these grids.
Also had a long QSO last night on FO-29 with Ron, W5RKN and discussed his upcoming amateur rocket launch. Ron is going for his Level 3 Certification Flight, which is a big deal indeed. I'm a BAR (Born Again Rocketeer) who grew up flying Centuri model rockets. It was fascinating to hear about Ron's efforts. Best of luck to him on the upcoming flight, or as we say in the film business, "Break a Leg!".
Meet the most interesting people on the birds!
