Good morning,
My appologies for not having this message sent much earlier in the week.

I've spoken with a few people that expressed an interest in operating in the ILLW this weekend.  This email will try to compile all the information I currently have.

Times:
The event officially starts at 0001Z on August 16 (Friday night at 8:00PM) and ends 48 hours later.  My plan is to operate starting at 8:00AM on Saturday until people are done and then perhaps repeat that on Sunday.

Where:
We've got the pavillion at the Calvert Marine Museum.

Equipment:
So far the following equipment has been offered up:
IC-706, tuner, 40m end-fed longwire, computer - WA4PRR
FT-950, computer, small iambic key - KC3AEN & KC3DAS

Equipment needed:
one HF antenna for FT-950

Who:
Ed KC3AEN and Monica KC3DAS | Saturday 9A - mid-afternoon | Sunday N/A
Eric W4OTN | Saturday 8A - mid-afternoon | Sunday - 8A until.
Dick N3VKW | Saturday N/A | Sunday ?
Ron WA4PRR | Saturday morning until ? | Sunday ?

We may not operate on Sunday as it seems that most people aren't available.  We can make that decision on Saturday, though.

That's what I've got so far.  What am I missing?

73,
Eric W4OTN/3
