[Moon] Western States 1296/2304 MHz Update #2

[WARD,AL]

Hello EMEers.

Here is the updated schedule of operations. K1RQG is handling sked requests, however, Paul is encouraging random activity especially with Europe as some of the common windows at the start of the operation are relatively short.

Paul has an improved set-up over that used in 2006. Paul now has a  12 ft dish and a GS-15b amplifier which runs about 300 plus watts output.
