Hi, all.
Well, for anyone who is interested, the XYL and I got the RV back from the
shop today, and the repairs to the all-important refrigeration unit have
been made.
I am taking two badly-needed vacation days this coming Thursday and Friday,
at which time, we'll get the RV set up at our usual spot for another camping
season.
I am not sure if this will happen yet, but I'd like to get my trusty G5RV
put up out at the camp site this week-end, if at all possible.
If I succeed, I may try to get into the 40-meter round table this coming
Saturday afternoon, if there is one.
I'll be limited to 100 watts with the TS480, so I'm sure my signal won't be
the greatest, but it's certainly worth a try.
If I get things up and running, I'll be experimenting around on the other
bands as well, so if you hear me, please give me a shout.
If things work out in the longer range, I'm planning to do a significant
amount of operating in the CQ WPX CW contest from the camp site over the
Memorial Day week-end, so lots to look forward to here.
Will keep everyone posted.
