Re: Good Luck eclipse chasers
David, K9DWR
I can’t believe I missed the opportunity to run an APE for this. It never occurred to me with all the preparations for the eclipse. :-(

Mike, We won't mark a "black spot" against you for it, even though we were "left in the dark" about it. ![]() Glad that you had a great experience. It definitely got dimmer here in CT but nothing like what you and others experienced. It must have been truly awesome. I busied my self with making contacts for the HamSci project but did step out to observe the "not so totality" here. Did you ever wonder how the moon just happened to be the correct size to make this all possible? What a plan! Joe KA1PPV #1482

2017 KC9UR Pontoon Portable APE
v32hoosier@...
Yahoo decided to bury the announcement I posted yesterday into an old thread from years past, so I'm re-posting it: The KC9UR Pontoon Portable APE has been spotted thrashing about northeast Indiana preparing to get on the air this Friday afternoon, Aug 25th, and continuing through Sunday morning, Aug 27th. Stan (W9SMR) and I are looking forward to our 5th consecutive APE from beautiful Round Lake, and to reconnecting with hunters of years past as well as working as many new PSKers as possible (last year's contact total exceeded 200). As in previous years, we're offering a custom QSL card and also a nice certificate to the persistent hunters who work us on three or more bands. We will be operating two stations on 80 thru 6 meters, propagation permitting. We'll post updates to this forum when we get on the air. Happy hunting! Stan (W9SMR) and Bob (KC9UR)

Sounds like my idea of hanging around until Tuesday paid off. Driving home to Plainfield was a breeze on Aug 22. :-)
