We'll be camping out with some of the K9KAO repeater group at the Juniper Springs Campground, just down the hill S/E of Big Bear Lake, about 7500' ASL. Grid square - DM14pf.

I'll be utilizing an Icom IC-7000 with a 'Lil-Tarheel-II in the Westfalia camper, but also setting up a QRP station as well: KX3 with an Icom AH703 portable antenna, powered by a 5Ah Lipo battery and a solar charging panel.

I might set up a BuddiPole configuration if I feel like dragging all that stuff along :unsure:

'Good Luck in the Contest' :tongue:
 
I'm hoping to make our club's even for at least a couple of hours. Trying to get a couple of new Tech's more interested in HF at the GOTA tent. :) This will be in North Richland Hills, TX.

I also will be out, @ about 5500 ft on top of the Bradshaws here in AZ,

Will be working as 2A w/GOTA station 6-40M and maybe 80 if the bands are good and all 3 modes.

Was hard to find a spot up there due to the fires 2 years ago, Grid DM34

Equipment Icom 706MIIG/ Yaesu 857D, R5 Vertical, G5RV, Buddipole, Home brew full wave 6M vertical, And end feed wire.....

Should be able to hear the QRP on 40 no problems will look for you Don..
