[QRP-L] Re: [Elecraft] CW Field Day operations in Northwest Oregon

[Kevin Rock]

I thought I had solved the problem since last year.  Such was not the case.  I am training a few CW ops and hope to have them ready for next year.  I have twenty acres far from power line noise on a mountain.  I will prepare an area and then invite a crew.  There are plenty of tall fir and hemlock trees to use for hoisting antennas.  The property is open enough we can all have antennas and work dozens of radios.  I think that will be the plan for FD 2008.  Folks could even work voice modes if they want.
  Thank you,
     Kevin.

>Last time we did that, a pair of cw ops got together... and when it was all done, and mostly done well, instead of a 2 or 3 tx outing, we had 21 stations on the air, half and half, but the cw stations ran qrp, and held any freq we wanted, running all night long. Very little s&p, mostly run... run... run.. what a blast.!! Lots of fun, Highly recommended for a wonderful way to meet friends and grow a club. Welcome new folks to ham radio, and cw.!!--...   ...-- Dale - WC7S in Wy
