>>   This year, for a number of reasons, I did not suggest to the microwave
>> EME community dates for activity weekends, (AW). My apologies and thanks to
>> those who have prodded me.  For new readers, an AW is when we attempt to
>> get all those with capability on a specific band to come on and make QSOs,
>> run tests for those needing signals, test new feeds, preamps etc. No
>> pressure, no scoring, use the reflector, use any mode, just activate the
>> band.
>> After taking soundings I suggest the following.  Sat./Sun. Aug. 16/17 - 6
>> cm ;  Sat. Sept. 20 - 3 cm , and Sun. Sept. 21 - 9 cm.
>> I know this is not ideal and  I know that Aug16/17 is the 70cm digital
>> contest but I dont think there are too many stations that will find that a
>> big conflict, its not a contest after all,  but an AW is an opportunity to
>> give the gear a check before theARRL Microwave contest on October 11/12th.
>> If you can be there good, if not, CU in October.
>> Next year it seems we start to get a better alignment of high declination
>> with low path loss and we will suggest dates in the first months of the
>> year.
