[MRCA] Sat RATT Test

Sun Aug 23 10:33:34 EDT 2020

This Saturdays test went well, I was running a Harris RF-350K at 100 watts and using a military computer running Windows XP and Mitty software set to 1575 Mark 850 Hz shift with the Harris set to 7080 (USB).

Did hear couple others in there during set up transmitting lots of RYRY, jumping foxes and coming to the aid of your country but did not copy calls but assumed that was Breck and Ron. Did copy Navy East K4NYW solid maybe ten to fifteen over S9 and we did some communications back and forth.

Shut down operations on TTY around ten of to QSY over to MMRCG net on 7.296 and apparently was confused about traffic on channel but turned out it was just couple people on channel having a QSO before net. I had copy of Joe W4VAG as always somehow he always gets out running low power. Did the MRCA net 5.357 at noon but conditions were sketchy but I was able to get in second round. All of this was with the RF-350 at 100 watts into a cut dipole for forty and an inverted V for sixty meters.
