Hello everyone.

This is Desmond, KC6VHG.  I'm still living out here on T.I. (15 years in to a 7 year plan!)

This weekend is the Armed Forces Day / Crossband Test event.  I'm planning to operate the crossband event from our Coast Guard club station on the base on Coast Guard Island Alameda. We'll be transmitting as NMC1

It's also the "One Day Getaway" event for the U.S. Islands Award.  Treasure Island doesn't qualify as an "Islands On The Air" (IOTA) location because it is inside the gate.  It does, however, qualify as a "U.S. Island"  Our identifier is "CA013S"

I haven't heard from anyone lately, but I'd like to operate under the K6NCG club call for the "Islands" event.  Might be fun catch for some folks. Is the call sign trustee listening to give me permission?

As Trustee of the Club Call Sign K6NCG, I certainly grant permission for you to use the call sign K6NCG for any ham radio event that takes place on Treasure Island. It will be great for K 6 Nancy Charlie Golf to be on the air. 73 es GL de Mike/W6RW (WB6FCE while stationed at TI)

Hi Desmond,
Thanks for the heads up. I'll look  for both calls on the DX Cluster.
I have a lot of great TI memories. Maybe we can  hook up on the air 
sometime and exchange sea stories.
 
Later, Joe

Thanks!

I remember hearing that 14.292 was a common frequency used by the club for phone patches. I usually look there first then try 3KHz up or down when I'm looking for a frequency.  That's what I'll do this weekend.  The Island event is Friday night to Saturday night.  On 40 Meters, I try 7.292 first (unless anyone else remembers a historic frequency that club members would remember.)

I do have one alum from the club, Pete WA6UDU nearby, though I haven't tried to recruit him yet.

Busy day yesterday!  We worked a lot of stations from NMC1 yesterday.  By the time I got back to the Island, the band had flattened out.

I apologize for the short notice.  I'm going to look deeper into the schedule so that we can get a more dedicated effort into running a station from here.  I'd really like to work you guys and put K6NCG on the air.  Does anyone know the date that the club was founded or any other significant dates in the club history that we could tie an event to?

Also, let me know if any of you are in the area.  I'd love to show you around the island. The city has been busy out here.

Let's get a plan together for a real event and pull this off.  I was trying to do too much on short notice yesterday.

73 de Desmond,
KC6VHG
