I have an ARC-4 and a type -12 2 meter radios to bring and wondering if anyone will be operating on those frequencies?
Thanks, Paul WA3GFZ

Military Radio has its own dedicated building and in addition to showing one of your prize radio projects a large amount of military radio operating takes place that weekend.

CW, sixty meters USB voice and six meters FM as a coordination and control channel.

Think one of the goals for that event is a full size RTTY station with a TT-4 if I can find one.
