[SJRA-Members] Copying W1AW Field Day Message Sat and Sun

[Richard VonLintig]

All SJRA Members,

Conditions seemed very bad for copying the W1AW message on Friday night,
and we did not copy it.  There will be several more opportunities, so it is
highly desirable that anyone who has a reasonable station make an attempt
to copy the message by either CW, phone, or digital.

If one tries by phone, it is really necessary to record it and then play it
back as one cannot write it down fast enough usually.  In CW it is also
desirable to record it, since we are supposed to copy it exactly.

So this is a request to copy the message if you have a chance.  The
following are times and frequencies:
CW: Sat 10 am and 8pm
        Sun 10 am

SSB: Sat 11am and 9:45pm
         Sun 11 am

Digital: Sat 9pm
            Sun 12 pm

The frequencies are the following:
CW: 3.5815, 7.0475, 14.0475, 147.555
Ph:   3.990, 7.290, 14.290, 147.555
Dig:  3.5975, 7.095, 14.095, 147.555

Conditions for 40 and 80 m were very bad on Friday night, and 20m had no
detectable signal either.  I may even try 147.555 at the next opportunity
if the other bands are not any better.
