[MRCA] Pre-Gilbert NVIS Test

Gang,

It's been suggested that we try to get back to our roots by encouraging 
HF AM operation in the field exercises.  In the past, 4 or 5 years ago, 
we had good success using 3885 KHz.  A couple of watts and a low dipole 
would get up out of a hole and over the ridge to HQ at Gilbert.  
However, I have a suspicion that, under current band conditions, NVIS on 
75M in the middle of the afternoon isn't going to work well at all.

I'd like to set up a sched with one (or more) of you guys within 100 
miles of Jersey to get a handle on this situation.  It would be helpful 
if you can easily QSY between 75, 60, and 40 meters.

Who's available?

Al
