[K6NCG] K6NCG Field Day 2008

[petevanp at pacbell.net]

Hi Ron and the whole group:
Our operating plan will be to work the top Mhz of each band at x.292Mhz. 
(7.292, 14.292, etc.)  Of course we may be plus-minus something to avoid 
QRM.
Which band and what time will be purely determined by conditions.

Our goal is to get two operating positions on the air.
My guess is we'll probably spend most of our time  on 40M and 20M.  We're 
going to try and erect a 80-40-20-10 fan dipole oriented roughly N-S for an 
East-West radiation pattern for the first operating position.
The second operating position will be using a BuddiPole which allows a 
little more flexibility on band selection.

I'll bring my laptop and as we move around I'll do my best to publish what 
we're doing via this reflector.
...pete...
