[K3CAL] NVIS Day

[Daire Hughes]

Hi all, For those of us that aren't privy to the "roster" perhaps someone should advertise a good 40m starting frequency.

40m band somewhere. Have to see what's open when we start calling CQ. If your cell # is on the Auxcomm roster I can try to remember to text you.

Are there going to be any specific frequencies that you guys will be on? I'm going to try to make contact around noon with you guys.

**FINAL NOTICE**

 

NVIS Day tomorrow, April 27th, 2024

Ward Farm Park Dunkirk, Md

10am-4pm

 

Bring your chair, shade/sunscreen, and refreshments. We will be operating a Yaesu FT-710 and Xiegu X6100(not at the same time) with a 9:1 unun and 71ft “random” wire to practice our “local” HF skills. 

 

NVIS is a great Ecomm skill for times when repeaters are down and VHF/UHF simplex just isn’t cutting it! The goal is to lower the antenna to increase the take-off angle thus decreasing the skip zone to communicate in a more local/regional scenario. Not something we practice frequently so it should be a fun challenge. 

 

Included is a map of the park. The red X is our set up location but it shouldn’t be too hard to find us. Weather is looking pretty good at this point so we hope to see folks there.

 

Andy
