[TVARC] camp villages

[Tom G]

I like the idea but not sure if they would allow us to put up an antenna.  Plus we only have a limited time at Colony's rec center...but I'm keeping my arthritic fingers crossed 🤞❗️

Folks, 

I wasn't there, but judging from all the comment, 
it sounds like a excellent opportunity to have a 
special event station with a special 1X1 call like 
K4V. 

A lot of stations chase certificates, plenty of 
time for publicity, the Villages would probably 
be happy to print the certificates and QSLs. 
1X1 calls get a lot of special attention on the 
sir. 

A beam set up at the site,, the TVARC club 
banner calling attention locally and nationally 
to the Camp Villages project? With the special 
event call, and a published frequency, there 
would be plenty of people looking for us which 
would assure us of a bunch of contacts.   

If we want to do this, we would have to form 
a committee now and apply for the special 
callsign for the date of the event immediately, 
or at least soon. 

What does everyone think of the idea? 

73,
