Re: 80 mtrs
Wasn't aware of the contest. Hopefully we'll be in the clear next week end. Whatever the case it looked like there was good propagation on 80.

Opps...sorry John. I went back and reread your email and looked and sure enough there was a lot of FT4 activity on 3.580. Hopefully it's just the contest this weekend. Forgive me. 73 Lee N5SLY

I believe the "default" frequencies for these digital modes are these... 3.570 USB JT65 3.572 USB JT9 3.573 USB FT8 3.575 USB FT4 3.580 USB PSK So it doesn't appear to me that there will be a problem next weekend. 73 Lee N5SLY

I think this weekend was some contest called WW DIGI DX. I think the only modes allowed were FT8 and 4. Someone in our club up here put on our reflector. Maybe that’s why so crowded.

80 mtrs
I took a look at 80 meters around 01:00 z tonight, and 3.578 to 3.582 was wall to wall FT4. If they are there next week end we will have a tough time with our sprint. Any suggestions on how we should handle this? It was clear from 3.583 to 3.587 but not sure if any other mode uses this section.

Come and get Wyoming" Special Event W7Y
Bill-N7RI
The Shy-Wy Amateur Radio Club was originally scheduled to host the 2020 Wyoming ARRL Section Convention right here in Cheyenne, Wyoming. We reserved the W7Y Special Event call-sign for the event. Unfortunately, we had to cancel the in-person event due to the Global COVID-19 Pandemic, but we’re not going to let this special event call-sign go to waste. The W7Y special event station recognizes the postponed Wyoming Section ARRL Convention, hosted by the Shy-Wy ARC in Cheyenne, Wyoming. We will operate the W7Y call-sign on various bands and modes starting September 6th, 2020 and ending on September 15th, 2020.

Re: APE weather in the NW
Thanks Dick. We are all looking forward to another trip by you two and chasing grids. Great fun! Especially for us who are pretty much tied to home - Covid or not. And to think, being "rock bound" used to mean we only had crystals. Now I have dual VFOs and am "bound to the rock." Ain't life funny? Rick - N7WE070 - #1602

Re: APE weather in the NW
Richard Rohrer
Hi Rick,
Like everything else its up in the air. The event we would be attending in Las Vega will either be canceled or not allowing spectators, so that is off the list. Kathy has been trip planning thru the Gulf states to AZ and then back to hit some of the less activated grids in TX, but with the potential hurricane damage that might be reconsidered. We were planning on going on a short trip around MS and AL to get some of the grids I want to transmit from, but we have been going up to MD for work and will be heading up there for two more weeks this weekend. This Covid travel restrictions really have the xyl bummed out. We have been home more this year since we moved to FL. Have not been very active, but did get two APEs. 73 Dick - KC3EF

Re: APE weather in the NW
Roger that Dick! No matter where you are...it could be worse! Laura isn't headed our way. Dodged another one.
Are you guys planning a road trip west for the fall? I, and many other grid chasers, always enjoy you trips! Hi to Kathy - super navigator and pilot of Grid Expeditions. -- Rick - N7WE 070 - #1602

Rick, it could be 110 degrees like in Phoenix, hi hi. But remember its dry heat. Seems like temps in FL are not as bad as some other parts of the country. We were working in MD a couple of weeks ago and it was in the high 90's all of the time.
