We look forward to working you in the September 2019 VHF contest.
KA5D/R will be operating Limited Rover class — 6M, 2M, 1.25M & 70cm — and roving six grids starting at the grid corner of EL08/EL18/EL09/EL19 at 13:00CDT Saturday and working our way north to Devil’s Backbone Overlook in EL09. We’ll then move on to another stop-and-shoot location near Dripping Springs at the EM00/EM10 border before spending the rest of the time in EM10 Saturday night. We will be transmitting on APRS as KA5D-6, so look for us using this aprs.fi link. Connectivity permitting, we’re also on the K5RMG.slack.com and VHF-Chat.slack.com Slack channels using the handle “KA5D”. Below is the map of the route. See you on the air!
