[MRIC] NVIS test

[BrettHam at aol.com]

FYI:

So far, TALB, WASH, ANAR and ALLE are interested in  participating in the 
test. It looks like March 1 will work best for all. I  will take this discussion 
off the MRIC email reflector and email directly those  that expressed interest 
so we can work out the details of time, objectives,  frequencies, etc.
 
Thanks again for your service.

All,

We would like  to schedule  a time on a Saturday, sometime in the next few 
weeks, to  test our BWD-90 NVIS  antenna at different heights at our EOC to 
see  
what the best height off the  ground would be for operating 40 meters  
sometime 
in the afternoon (maybe 3 PM?).  We want to try to call a few  stations 
around 
Maryland, then move the antenna  higher, then call the  same stations again, 
then move the antenna higher, etc. to  see what  works best for reaching both 
near 
and far stations in Maryland. Then,   we would like to perform the same test 
on 80 meters in the evening of the  same  day.

If you would like to participate (perhaps you would like  to run some  tests 
yourself) please let me know what Saturdays would be  good for you. We  would 
be 
happy to accommodate any testing you may  like to perform. You are  welcome 
to 
participate in either 40 or 80  meter tests, or both  tests.

February 16
February 23
March  1
March  8

Thanks.
