Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2017 6:38 PM To: 070@... Subject: [070] 2017 KC9UR Pontoon Portable APE 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)

My 366 progress
Only 8 dates left to fill for my 366 now. September 6 and 7 come up before my next surgery date. I am having my other (right) knee replaced on September 13th. My next date after surgery is September 17 – hopefully I will feel up to making it down the stairs into the shack for my contact. If not, I’ll get the hubby to turn on the rig and fire up the software, and I’ll remote to it from my laptop. I should be able to make it down the stairs and back up, but it won’t be easy – that will be my adventure for the day, for sure! I’m gonna make it come hell or high water!
After that one, I’ll only have 5 left to go . . . _.
