In an effort to promote Larry's ,W2LJ, 100 in 100 DXCC diploma, and it just so happens I am in Mexico extremely often on business, I have my K2 #4409 built by Don W3FPR up and active from (right now) the 40th floor hotel here in Mexico City.
Planned Operation Dates: March 7-16th Evenings on 20,30,40m .035-045 of the bands on CW and on SSB on .195-.205. I can do other bands 10-80 Times: 00:00UTC to about 05:00UTC I plan on being active from a park bench or a better operating location for the EQP that is supposedly this weekend. (I am going to ask for access to the Heli-pad! That should be a nice ground plane! I will be active from XE2 (Northen Mexico)next week so you may even work a different XE zone as well. Rig: K2 #4409 using internal battery and Smart Charger Antenna: MP-1 Hopefully, the bands will allow for me to work other Elecraft owners/rigs and and hand out what should be an "easy" DXCC entity for other QRP/Elecraft enthusiasts on both modes. Operating times and days may vary as I have a 10Gb optical network to finish up so my real-work may supersede operating! 73 and I hope to work you Javier XE1/NM6E --- Larry Makoski W2LJ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > To all Elecrafters, > > Due to the inspiration of Arnold Olean KØZK, I am > happy to announce two > new Elecraft Awards. > Paragaphs Deleted: > In the same vein, I am also announcing the new > Elecraft "100 in 100" > Award.
