W5PFG/P November EL09 & DL89 area ops
Nov 23-25 I will operate from grid EL09, not far from the DL99 line. It's likely I'll operate from DL99 on several passes. I will try to visit DL98/DL99 line at least once. I have not operated from those grids since 2011. I know that N8RO operated from this area not too long ago but I'll activate it again for those who missed Ron on his trip.
November 25-28, I will be operating from DL89 with occasional operations from DL79/89. It is possible, though I have not made reservations yet for 4x4 transportation, that I will operate from DL88 for a 2nd time in 2014.
November 28-29, I will operate from the DM90/DM91 area. I won't have a lot of time in this area and will only notify via Twitter in advance of me working a pass.
It's becoming common to see satellite operators post their updates via Twitter (recent examples: KG5CCI, WD9EWK, AC0RA, XE3DX.) Here's a little explanation:
Twitter is possibly the most versatile tool for notifying individuals about grid operations. You can access my Twitter feed by web at http://www.twitter.com/w5pfg. If you create an account on Twitter, you can configure email and text (SMS) alerts. It is not necessary to have Internet access to send notifications. I can post a Tweet simply by sending a text (SMS) to a special phone number. Alternatively, I can send a Tweet even if I don't have cell coverage but do have Internet access. It provides a lot of flexibility. There is no cost for this service and it is generally as reliable or better than email service. It does not rely on any individuals relaying information for you.
