Hello,

On Sunday I will venture out onto the Appalachian Trail to test out a new light weight antenna for 40 meters.

I plan to be on the air between 17:00 and 18:00 UTC.

This is what I will have with me.

SW-40+ Transceiver running 1.5 watts out.
40 meter dipole cut for 7.040 MHz with 20 feet of RG 8X feed line.
Poqet PC for logging and keying.
7 aH battery solar charged.
Myself and tent with a thermos of coffee.

Look for me in or around 7.040 MHz.
If the is QRM I will move down to 7.035 MHz.

I plan to be there for about 2 hours using WB3AAL.
I will stay there until 20:00 UTC at the latest or until I can't make any more QSO's.

72 & 73
Good DXing
