[MRCA] Fort Miles Ops this Weekend

[B. Smith]

I've been invited by the  261st Coast  Artillery //Reenactors group to 
set up WWII radio equipment this weekend primarily on Saturday(4-26-14). 
This large group will turn back the clock at Ft Miles to 1941.  I will 
be using low power BC-1306 and BC-474 sets and BC-611  radios and will 
make an attempt to utilized the RM-29 remote with these sets to allow 
land line to radio coordination between  the "Plotting" room with other 
installations.

Saturday I will sneak in a "modern" radio and attempt  battery powered 
portable ops on top of one of the sand dunes using a half-wave  end fed 
"Fuch" tuned   antenna and check into the M and S net. So Moose and 
Squirrel personnel at the Sussex event listen up for a low power signal.
  I would like to also make a CW contact with the Sussex group on 80 
meters if someone can find a key. I will send slow and please do the same.

As in the past I will have APRS operational - - -  which has sort of 
been a new MRCA tradition started by "Don't follow me I am lost" Walt 
KB3SBC.

For the APRS data go to Google APRS maps and enter my call K4CHE, no 
slant bar or dashes etc. are necessary.
