[bars] Bars group POTA Parks on the Air

[Paul Pellegrini]

OK Chris –

I’ve just returned from a trip.  I got on the BARS net last night.  So, I’m ready to go.  I also have some equipment to add toyours.  The best time of day this time ofyear is in the early afternoon to dusk. It’s warmer and the bands are more lively then.  I suggest Great Brook Farm because we canseparate if we try to get 2 stations going.

I’m fine for Thursday and Friday.  No for Saturday.  The next few days after that look like rainouts.  Give me a call.  Send me an email.  Etc.

de K1VK - Paul

 I have been thinking the same.  
The Carlisle State Forest has limited parking and a limited area to set up.  Great Brook and Manning are good options.  I have activated Manning.  I have been saving Great Brook.
I can do Thursday/Friday weekday activations.  10:00 is good.  This week I have a dentist appt on Friday.   
Equipment I can bring:Xiegu G90 20W (CW and Phone) can do FT8 but not very experienced, never activated with it.15 Ah batteryFox River monopole w 40m coil(Can do 10-20m plus 40m)6m Carbon Fiber Mast can be used with20m EFHW20/40 m EFHW20m dipole 20m 1/4 monopole wire15m 1/4 monopole wireRig Expert for tuningPaddles and straight key.Coax to connect it all
