[SJRA-Members] Introduction and the NJ QSO Party

[Christopher Wawak]

Hi all, my name's Chris, and I'm KC2IEB, a General from Haddon Township NJ,
FM29LW. I'm into HF digital, contesting, satellite, and making a mess of my
shack. Right now, I've got an IC-7300 w/ panadapter mod, a KPA1500, an
NCC-2 noise phaser (a must!), and a DX Commander vertical and a zs6bkw in
the backyard in addition to various moxons and experimental receiving
antennas I've abandoned.

For the satellite side, I've got an IC-9700 w/ GPSDO (more for MSK), 2m and
70cm circularly polarized beams on an azel rotator, bandpassed and
preamped.

I like to operate SSB, FT8, RTTY, PSK, and of course SSTV. I enjoy putting
antennas in trees over and over trying to get just one branch higher. I
work at Red Hat, an open source software company helping customers build
large cloud environments.

Saturday's the New Jersey QSO Party. I'll be operating from my Haddon
Township, NJ QTH as N2C (C for Camden County!). <https://www.qrz.com/db/N2C>
I'm happy to set up a 10 meter sked if you'd like to work me. If you hear
me, please say hi and that you say my email! I'll try to have the club
repeater up if anyone wants to keep me company!

In other news, I've got some friends who plan to be online at High Point
State Park as N2J <https://www.qrz.com/db/n2j>, and they are gonna have a
super nice QSL card, so I recommend keeping an eye out for them.

Don't know what the NJ QSO Party is? Check it out!
