KA6U Update - August 16, 2024 0200UTC

I am considering "finishing" this roving trip between October 14- 23 when the Moon will be in the North and the degradation less than 0.5db on 70cm.

Considering the following states:
KY, TN, AL, MS, NC, LA, OK, AR
Maybe Utah depending on the weather.  If I go to Utah it would be at the start of the rove then I would work my way back east.

Operations will be on 70cm, 33cm and 23cm on request by operators who need one of these states for WAS.

This may be my last long range multi-state WAS roving trip.  These trips cost about $250 per day and the total cost for the completed trip was $10,000.  Enough to build a good 10Ghz station :-).

Please watch my blog for updates.
