[GCARC] Pack Rats Special Activity

[Jeff One]

All,

I am forwarding this message for Scott Dantis AA2SD because he had an

Please forward any questions to Scott at : scottdantis at gmail.com.

 

The Mt. Airy VHF Radio Club will be hosting a special activity period during
the upcoming January VHF Contest. 

 

On Sunday afternoon January 19th from 19:00 to 22:00 UTC the Pack Rats will
be gathering on 2 Meter SSB looking for contacts to move up the bands.

 

Sunday afternoon is usually the slowest part of the contest with many
stations drifting off to check out the NFL activity. In order to provide an
incentive to stay in the VHF game we will be hosting the Pack Rat Contest
Bowl a 3-hour period to find stations with multiple bands that will help
raise your grid totals and final score.

 

Take advantage of the Sunday afternoon doldrums. Join the Pack Rats on 2M
SSB/CW and move stations up the bands. Increase your higher band Q's and
grid totals. More efficient than sending endless unanswered CQ's on FT8. 

 

Tell everyone you know - the place to be on Sunday afternoon from 2 PM to 5
PM EST is 2M SSB and QSY UP.

 

GET IN THE GAME!

 

Sunday Jan19th Activity Period 19:00 to 22:00 UTC
