I apologize if there were any stations looking for me on HO68 today. We ended up leaving Troy sooner than I thought. Even though I wanted to get on HO68, I think it worked out best that we left early - I was receiving several questioning looks from employees coming out of their offices to see what I was up to along with pedestrians and people driving by. If anyone has any tips on how to make yourself not "stick out like a sore thumb", I sure would appreciate it! =)

Hi All,
I will be operating portable from EN70 tomorrow on the 1639z SO50, 1713z AO27 and 1745z HO68 passes. We are due in Troy, Ohio at 1630z, so as long as traffic moves okay, the SO50 pass should work fine. According to Google Earth the location should be a good place for working the lower elevation passes – the only issue might be power line noise. I will be traveling with the Arrow and (2) THG71A HTs.
If this is a new grid for you, send me an email with the QSO details and I will send you a card. No need for a return card.
