Hello SOTA-fans!
I will stay both in Fuerteventura (EA8/FU) and in Lanzarote (EA8/LA) from 13. - 23. january 2024 trying to do several SOTA-activations, using my KX2 with 10 W, 3200mAh LiFePO4 accu and vertical- or endfed-antenna.
QRG: 7 - 28 Mhz
Alerts will be posted. Spots for SSB, if possible, spots for CW via RBNhole.
I hope conds are strong enough to work in SSB, otherwise I have to use CW.
See you on frequency!
73, Franz

Good luck - have fun

Enjoy your trip and hope it’s not too windy on the summits.
I think you’ll have no probem getting contacts with 10W on SSB as long as you pick the right band and time of day. 10 m was working great around noon from Fuerteventura a few weeks ago.
I found good mobile phone coverage on the summits I did in Fuerteventura (less so in some of the valleys) but I used Sotamat for self spotting which worked a treat.
