[K3PZN-List] CCARC equipment for Field Day

[Curt Milton]

It will take some strategy to optimally use our 2? sets of BPF's.  

Note we may have as many as 4 transmitters on the same band at the same time (ex: 20m day time - SSB, CW, digital, GOTA ... likewise all of these, or most can be on 80m at night).  

Of course - these filters do nothing when we 'all' are on the same band .... 

The agile stations are digital, GOTA and to a lesser extent CW.  The SSB stations are banded ... hmmm.  

One approach is to put one set on the SSB transmitters, and hold the second set in reserve until we discover where its needed ??  We'll figure it out !

Those band pass filters are super important, and everyone should use them.  

They will keep your harmonic and out of band signals to a minimum, making it easier for your friends to enjoy their operations.  

Those of you with multi-band operations will have to change filters when they change bands.

I am also bringing a full set of filters for those that can use them.

The Club's new generator sounds nice; some of you might remember that I can stall a generator (and not get it restarted) quite easily at field day!
