For the week of August 14th to the 22nd, 2009, we will not only
be activating the Eagle Harbor Lights from a fixed station, we will also
activate other lighthouses
while mobile in Michigan's upper peninsula, especially in the Keweenaw
Peninsula, in the days following the ILLW.
From Aug 17th to 21st, activations of lighthouses will most likely take place
after 2100 UTC. Our activity level and times depend entirely on our very changeable
schedule, so we are not guaranteeing that any particular light will be
activated.
For all lighthouse activations between Aug. 14th and 22nd, we
will be using the callsign K8E. We will have one QSL for Eagle Harbor Lighthouse
QSOs and
another for all other lighthouse activations.
During ILLW, we will put an emphasis on CW, especially on
Saturday, during the NAQP, Phone. Throughout ILLW and the week following, we
will be listening for DX stations.
