Hello,

 It is 12:40 UTC and I am leaving my QTH for the Appalachian Trail in 20
minutes. I should be at my location between 14:00 UTC & 14:45 UTC calling
CQ.

I will be operating on the AT about 1 mile south of Rte. 183 near
Strausstown, PA. I will be using my K1 at about 4 watts with the Vertical
Black Widow Fishing Pole Antenna for 40, 30 & 20 meters and I plan to take a
15 meter dipole. I will be using my solar panel to keep a charge going on my
batteries.

I can't give a specific band or time that I will be on. If you work or hear
me on the air, Please post me on the list. If you give me a call, please
give me a few seconds to log your call into the Poqet PC and pick up my key.

 It is around 38' F now with a 2 MPH breeze. I plan to be working on the air
until17:00 or 18:00 UTC. This all depends on the weather and band
conditions.

72 and Thanks,
Ron Polityka
