Peter, PA0PJE and I are going to try to do some low power tactical HF radio ops at midnight Monday morning (0000 Eastern Daylight/0400 Zulu (that's up late Sunday night here, up early in Holland Monday morning) on 40 CW using AN/GRC-9 and WS19 sets. I will be at home using my home station dipole, and Peter will be at Fort bij Edam, one of the old coastal defense line of forts around Amsterdam, where they have an exhibition of old gear like a 19-set and of the Angry 9 set up.
We will start on or around 7035 kHz, and go down as low as 7026 kHz. Listen for the chirps! If you want to play, bring up your 9 set or 19 set! We will standby for any others.
My GRC-9 will be in the Tacoma on the home dipole for the start of the fun. If signals are good on the AN/GRC-9 with the dipole, I will switch to the mobile antenna on the Tacoma to see if that will be a go. My 19 set on the dipole made it over to Giles, G0NXA last night so we should have a shot at it.
