I'm with you on this one Harris.
With my efforts currently concentrating on 17 and 160 meters (not that I'd
turn down 12 meters if it ever opened), I wouldn't mind working the KP5 guys
on those bands. Now if the weather and work will ever give me a break to go
add some radials to my poor pathetic
I've had just one QSO with this one - and that was on 40m SSB with K3LP a few
years ago.
Did we ever find out who sabotaged that operation?
I'm just hoping that the US Govt bureaucrats consider the operation a success
so they can be persuaded to allow an operation from the last one I need: a K
I have plenty of Q's (80 through 10) since I was licensed in the
mid-1980s, but still need one for my favorite band -- 18 mHz. I'll be
in there looking. My amp hasn't been hooked up for over 2 years, and I
don't intend to do so now (I'll get it in line for P5, though).
So, barefoot it is. S

I'm not so sure, Rag. I think it's a cultural thing.
Go skiing in Europe then in Colorado. Northern Europeans and Yanks stand in
line (queueing to you and I but we have to be bilingual on an American
reflector). Germans and Italians just form a big scrum whilst the Russians look
like they'll c
Hi Tim,
I am located also in grid EN91, just a tad east of you located in Garfield
Heights, just south of the Cleveland border.
Using a modest station: Kenwood TS-850, with a Butternut HF9V ground mounted
vertical.
In December 2005 on The 16 & 17th I was able to make & confirm contact with

I have only one QSO with Desecheo right now - 15 meter SSB with the dynamic
duo who operated there a few years ago.
I want to get at least a CW and a digi QSO and maybe a couple other bands. I
hope they aren't going to assume everyone in North America has KP5 confirmed
on all band-modes already.
I think this operation is going to be very professional, all the way around.
Any NA should have no problem working them. EUs should have an excellent
shot at multiple contacts. There will be the usual madness in the beginning,
but things should settle down fast.
Looking forward to it. I need

I can see right now what's going to happen when they work Europe:

While that's nice of them, I don't think it's necessary.
The little pistol's #1 weapon in the pileups is to act like they're a big
gun.

can any one give me any good ideas
Go where the competition is less. The WARC band are usually
very productive. Should get some N/S propagation on 10/12/15/17

Hi Tim,
First may I suggest that you go to the team web site www.kp5.us and read the
latest press release. The team wishes to work folks like you with modest
stations and has ask the big guns to hold off a bit. Now we know that will not
happen in some parts of the world but the request may he
