September 13-21, 2008
Once again, Harry, K6PDQ, and I are hitting the road as Rovers 1 & 2 for the 2008 Route 66 On-The-Air special event. Our travels this year will take us from the western terminus of the Mother Road (the Santa Monica Pier) to Seligman and points unknown therein.
I last operated this event back in 2005 as W6B and had a great time. This year, however, we are planning on spending more time on the air and less time behind the wheel. We will be keeping an event journal including pictures as well as an online logbook. These can be accessed through the links shown above. We will update these pages frequently throughout the event.
Given the poor band conditions we're planning on focusing on 20-40 and 80 meters especially in the late afternoon and into the night. So plan on listening for us just before dinner and well after. Harry doesn't sleep, and I don't know what that word means, so don't be surprised if you hear both of us well into the wee hours of the morning (Arizona time). Here's the link to the Route 66 On-The-Air HQ where you can find information on all the other Route 66 OTA stations (W6A-W6Q).
Also, be sure to keep checking this page as I will be posting IMPORTANT NEWS as we make it! We will also have an online log during the event.
73 and please spot us when you hear us. Harry, W6R and Steve W6S
