*20/80 meter cw Band Captain's letter*

Matt and I could probably use a relief operator, if you want to shake the
cobwebs off your fist. 20 wpm skills a plus! We hope to KA if we can stay
awake.

20 meter cw, monobander atop AB-577 50' mast. Our daytime band.

80 meter cw, dipole up as high as we can get it (at least 50 feet). Our
nighttime band.

Rig: K3. Bencher paddle. Heil earphones. Power supply & storage battery
through West Mountain PWRgate, which means that we can stay on the air while
refueling generator, or if someone trips over the extension cord. Backup
rig: K3.

Sony laptop with N1MM for complete logging and rig control. Battery good, &
kept charged through inverter from 12 v supply.

Shelter: camper or screenhouse with fly.

Frandy, N1FJ
