as FP/KV1J between October 26th and November 2nd. He states, "The dates
may shift a bit depending on the weather and available transportation.
This is a French territory (Collective) off the coast of Newfoundland.
I will be mostly on the low bands but plan to take breaks and work as
many of the FM satellite passes that I can. I have AO-51, AO-27, SO-50,
SO-67, and HO-68 programmed with Doppler shifts in an FT-817. I will be
doing this outside with an Arrow 146/437-10 antenna. The weather can get
rough where I am and the winds are high so I will do my best under the
conditions. I have a digital audio recorder tied to both the TX and RX
audio so I will do the final logging when I return inside. I was on
from this spot in November 2009 using the AO-51 bird with good results.
This trip, I hope to try other satellites when they are available.
Once I am on the island, it gets busy with the setup and the low bands
so it is not practical to do scheds, but I will favor the daylight
passes since they are easier to operate outdoors. I have a web page at
<http://www.kv1j.com/fp/october10.html> for more information, and I will
try to put some status information there when I can. I do have internet
access but it is not always available. I will be traveling via the
Island of Saint Pierre. If I get on from there, I will be grid GN16.
Still operating as FP/KV1J."
