Planing to be on the air Sunday the 27th of March starting at 0900Z FT8 and SSB

 

Bands?

 

10/20 for sure, possible 10-80. Also looking to try some other digital modes. If you have a band/mode you would like to work reach out via email and I will see what we can do about getting on that band/mode.

 

2nd operator will soon be joining J20MR in Djibouti

Good deal! Matt went above and beyond this morning to accommodate my hope of putting an ATNO in my log, but sadly, it just wasn't meant to be today. He could hear me, but I couldn't copy him.

 

We will keep trying!

 

We plan on getting not the air tomorrow, not sure on the time yet. We have a new operating location and we still have a few things let to get the 20m antenna up and operational. We should have it all set up by lunch time.
Hope to see you on 20m
