(Info from WA4NVN)

Damon, WA4HFN, will be on the Grid Line EM85/EM86 on the afternoon AO-51 passes today, October 19th.

Damon has had a difficult time gettng through on the birds during his trip because of the congestion on the channels. Those that make the effort to operate from grids away from home are making a sacrifice so that we can pick up needed grids. Please give them some airtime to work as many stations as possible.

When you travel, consider taking your satellite equipment along and operating as much as you can. You will get an appreciation of what is involved and you will also be giving out grids to those working on their VUCC and other awards. Being on the other end can be both exciting and rewarding.
