Good Morning Joe

 

I am here in Fargo ND. Setup portable on a local 12 ft dish. This trip
is totally impromptu and improvised

 

 I have my portable 120W rig.   At this point we have worked W5LUA 

 

We are manually aiming and need visible moon....lost it in clouds this
morning but we plan to be back on when the clouds and storms dissipate.

 

We need 20 degree elevation so we will be on 06:30 for as long as needed

 

Frequency is 1296.020 MHz

 

We have not optimized the feed. On the dish.....but now have lost the
sun, so we may have to go with what we have.

 

This station should be on again as I will leaving the equipment here.

 

The phone number here will be 701- 793-2470.   And will have this Email
address tonite

 

Best 73
