[SMCARA] CLUB STATION EVENT: July 19th 14:00 to ???

[Daniel Metcalf]

All,

Thanks to several members of the club we have rounded up all of the pieces
we need to hook the club station up to do digital modes. I am looking to
head over to the museum Friday to do a dry run and have it ready for
Saturday. I will spend the next couple of days brushing up on my RTTY and
getting the laptop configured. I have used a couple apps in the past "Ham
Radio Deluxe"  and I think I have used N1MM with a RTTY add-on. Does anyone
have a preference?

The contest starts at 1400 (2pm) local and runs until 0200 (2am) local. I
can be there at the start but will have to bug out around 1530 - 1600 due
to a prior engagement. I will leave my gear in the capable hands of the
club. Please secure it in the rear of the club station when operations
cease and I will pick it all up during next week.

Contest Details:

Bands: 3.5-28
Name : North American QSO Party RTTY
Exchange : Name and S/P/C
Log Submission: ncjweb.com
Log Due Data: 7 days
Start and End Time: Jul 19, 1800Z - Jul 20, 0600Z

Please let me know if you are interested in participating in this contest
with the club by replying to this email. We have the ability to run three
rigs during this contest so if you would like to bring your setup and hook
into the beam please let us know that as well so we can have the triplexer
and filters on site for Saturday. Thanks and HAVE FUN!
