Operating portable the grid JN70GT from the depth of volcano Vesuvio !
Hi All, in Europe
On day 28 june 2011 I will be operating VO-52 portable from the depth of the cone of volcano Vesuvio in grid square JN70GT a "hole"never worked before !
The depth of the cone is about 300 meters so that the window for me will be very short as follows:
AOS at 07:51 UTC with elevation of 49° TCA with maximum elevation of 80° at 07:52 UTC LOS at 07:54 UTC with elevation of 39°
I will operate SSB in the middle of the downlink at 145.900 MHz using 30 watt from my TS 790E and a IOio antenna.
The power supply will be provided by a small 650 watt 220 volt 50 Hz gasoline electric generator.
The team will be made by five radio Hams.
Dont' loose this unique opportunity to work a "deep hole JN70GT" never worked before !

Dom,
You never cease to amaze me!!! Can you somehow manage to increase the bird's elevation so I can work you from San Diego!!
Best of luck in the venture
