[MRCG] Big Iron Coming to SLO

[Ed Zeranski]

Jack,

      It was a nice season in Borrego and is just now hitting triple digits. 
I'm still running the 756Pro to a ladder line fed 80m dipole and an Icom 2m 
xcvr with a Ringo Ranger2. It seems like all I work down in Borrego is 
17,75, and a bit of 40 for some Baja nets. The 2m is usually monitoring the 
CalZona linked repeater on Monument Peak. Last weekend the 6 meter antenna 
was relocated after being wreaked by a wind storm.  6 can be  good from 
there, DM13tf, even with just the homebrew delta loop. Maybe we can hook up 
when you get back.
     Today I'm loading up for MRCG so I can head up tomorrow. It will be a 
TCS with dynamotor supply off deep cycle batteries and wire antenna.

Ed;


Sorry I missed you when we were in Borrego Springs in Feb.
Set up in rental and had a FB month on the air.
Can't make SLO XYL sez no way.
The BC-375, tuning units, trailing wire ant tuner, MG set now on display at 
Historic Flight Foundation, Paine Field, Mukilteo WA. No plans to put on air 
at this time.
HFF has acquired a 1942 Butler hanger, large enough for 3 B-25 or C-47 
aircraft. Is now disassembled / stored at Moses Lake WA . Should be set up 
at Paine Field by summer 2014, Snohomish county has given OK to put on field 
near HFF. My plan is to move the radio's to shop area in "new" hanger. Hope 
to get OK to put up Vintage type antenna and put on air along with modern 
operating station.
Speaking of modern, a couple of HFF member hams (self included) are going to 
operate special event station at HFF 5/18 call N7P. see eham & QRZ special 
event listings. If more then one rig I will run CW but 40 / 20 SSB for sure 
as I'm the only CW guy. Special QSL card with B-25D "Grumpy". Grumpy is 
oldest flying B-25.

......... part of Radio Set GRC-27

I have vile memories of dealing with evil Greek/Jerk -27s....replaced by
even nastier URC-9/SRC-20/SRC-21
The Collins GRC-27 was very specturally clean however and used for the
basis of some early satcom.
