I volunteered and got the job of 80 meter band captian!

Last year, MADXRA's field day effort yielded 245 voice contacts on 80
meters, more than any other band, although, 40 scored more points with
204 voice and 72 CW.  I hope to equal or better that mark with the 80
meter station this year.  But to do that, we need operators!

If you know 80 meters, it works best at night, and fortunately, I'll
have released myself from my self imposed caffeine hiatus by then, but
that doesn't mean that there won't be stations active on 80 all day.

CW - I'll have the station setup for CW as well as phone, if there is
enough operator interest, I'm perfectly happy with setting up two
complete stations.

I don't need exact times and schedules, just let me know if you can
operate around one of these general times.

Setup (Friday Afternoon/eve Saturday Morning)
Saturday Afternoon
Saturday Evening
Saturday Late Night
Sunday Early Morning (midnight to sunup or so)
Sunday Mid Morning (sunup to 10 or 11 or so)
Sunday Late Morning/Afternoon
Take Down (Sunday Afternoon)
