My Elecraft FD plans.

Darwin, Keith
I'm sure y'all have been wondering, "What's Keith going to do for FD
this year"?  Well, the wait is over.
 
I'll be taking the K2 to the local cemetery, stringing a ladder-line fed
dipole up in the trees and operating solo.  CW only, K2 at 5 watts,
paper logging, Honda Element providing power, shelter and
transportation.
 
The cemetery is on the top of a hill and has a good clear view in all
directions.  Trees are tall, widely spaced and, unlike the local forest,
have no "extra" vegetation between them.  Residents are quite and
tolerant.  The only issue is the sign at the front gate that says "open
dawn to dusk" so I'll be operating only for a few hours.
 
This will be my first time using the K2 keyer's memories - first time
ever using a memory keyer in fact.
 
Should be a fun time.  Hope the WX cooperates.
