[MohawkARC] Fwd: New England QSO Party

[Bill Leger]

Calling it off due to a lack of interest.

Anyone have any ideas that will motivate this club???

Very sad conditions here in Mohawk land.

> On May 4th and 5th the New England QSO Party will take place, this is a contest that involves the rest of the world trying to contact New England stations. One of the better contest for us living in New England.

> If we get enough interest we can use the trailer and tower in Baldwinsville. We can use this as a mini Field Day practice. We would run 2 stations SSB and DIGITAL. We could run a third station on CW if someone want to go that route.

> When I say mini Field Day, order out for food, no porta potty, bring your own drinks, snacks and food. I would call Susan to see if we can take electric power of the pole.

> We could use the 2 beams on the tower and set up dipoles for 40 & 80 meters.
