Hi fellow club members,
We are finalizing stations for this year's radio Field Day June 27.
Though joining an already named radio-chair's team to get scheduled to
operate is really the easiest way to go, I want to open this offer to
anyone who may be interested.
Here's the offer:
If you've ever nervously DREAMED of the CHALLENGE of being your own
radio-chair on the field with other W2MMD stations during our GCARC field
day, here is your chance!
There actually are some band-modes still available. We can make it happen.
Brave enough to give it a try?
It comes with a 100 bonus per extra station that can get on the air
simultaneously. Plus points for each contact you make.
If considering, please email me direct as soon as possible so I can get you
on the radio-chairs list.
Band-slots with no radio coverage at all as of right now:
160 Meters : 3 station slots available, current open modes: CW, Digital,
and Phone
80 Meters: 1 station slot available: mode Phone
10 Meters: 3 station slots available, current open modes: CW, digital,
and phone
6 Meters: 2 station slots available, current open modes: digital and
phone
Band-slots without simultaneous coverage as of right now:
80 Meters and 15 Meters, both CW and Digital: 4 station slots will try
to be covered by one radio (Darrell Neron, AB2E), if no other radios
volunteer to set up
Thank you!
