Hi All,
I have been asked to do a few satellite demos for some Boy Scouts tomorrow afternoon on Horn’s Hill, Newark Ohio. The location sits about 400-500’ above the rest of the terrain which is great for low passes, but there are several trees to contend with. It would be great if a few people could call so the scouts could hear a typical exchange, and it would be really great if whoever calls could give their state as well.
Here are the passes I plan to be on:
AO27 30/1817z 50*
AO51 30/1942z 15*
Maybe... AO27 30/1957z 19*
I will be operating with my usual call, or I might be operating using W8CBF. Grid will still be EN80.
We will also be on HF:
JOTA Scout Frequencies
Band
80-meter 3.940 MHz
40-meter 7.190 MHz
20-meter 14.290 MHz
10-meter 28.390 MHz
Sorry I can't provide more details about the event. I believe there were a few organizational issues. The passes and HF ops will be dependent on who all shows up, band conditions and weather. There are supposedly 400-500 scouts that will be coming through.
If you would like a card, send me the QSO details and I will send you one - no return necessary.
73!
