Bass - KD8BBK & KD8MQ Sep 18, 2021 On Saturday, (Sep 18th), KFF-3517 (North Bass Island) is being invaded. The invasion will come from the air at about 1315Z, and last a few hours. The invading force will consist of two operators; Tony Schillig (KD8BBK), and myself (KD8MQ). We'll be running stations under our own callsigns. Tony's specialty is CW, while I'll be doing SSB, and (maybe) FT4/8. We'll probably do a first time activation of W8LKY; the club callsign for our local Radio club. The cell service is spotty on the island, so any spotting help is appreciated. At this time, operation on 40/20 is planned. 75 might happen, but I can't promise yet. We aren't the first to activate here. The island has been activated only twice; never on CW, or Data modes. We'll talk to you on Saturday! 73 DE KD8MQ / KD8BBK See more details •
