[SJDXA] SJDXA Meeting

[Bob Schenck N2OO]

The next SJDXA meeting will be held this Wednesday evening Feb 23rd at 7:30
PM

Final preparations for next weekend's 160 SSB contest!

 

Today (Sunday) John KE2OI and Randy W2RDM met me at the site. We did a
visual inspection of the transmit antennas, and ran SWR checks. All seem OK.
Some minor adjustments will need to b made on the inverted L and maybe the
West sloper. But, we will probably leave the NE alone? We'll retest to be
sure.

We also did a broadcast band quick check of the beverages and they all also
seemed to be working correctly.

 

We will be needing a few short (about 3 feet) coax jumpers (RCA male / RCA
Male) and maybe one RCA Male / BNC Male cable.

If anyone has these, let me know. We have longer ones (RCA/RCA) available
(KE2OI) but shorter ones might work better.

 

Unless someone has other/better amp available than our L7, we will be using
Marty's Alpha for the run station, and the SJDXA Drake L7 in the mult
station. (AL811H as backup).

Radios: K3's in run and mult positions (KB2M and N2OO). SJDXA FT1000MKV in
slave position.

We have no backups, so if you have something we could use for a backup, let
me know.

 

We will open up the site at about 8:30 AM Friday morning for set up.

 

See you at the meeting Wednesday evening.

 

 

 

See ya' in the Pileups!

73!
