As a suggestion Miles instead of beaming towards the Atlantic you can beam to the North in direction of Deerfield NH. It will be the The 
New England Amateur Radio Festival - NEAR-Fest October 10-11 and it's about 30 miles in line of sight from your QTH. I don't know the exact 
topography of the region but i guess some mountains can be in the path?
