[W8MWA] C4FM experimentation.

I am at a higher elevation, I can also hit and receive the W3PIE repeater
in Uniontown. My receive signal is around 5db, so am not sure how well I am
being received by the repeater but I might be able to make the trip.

If you are interested and everyone is ok with making a presentation at the
January meet, I am willing to bring in my HT, base or both for a
demonstration where people can see and use it in a working environment, I
could also bring in my projector if someone wants to make a video for
demonstration.  I am pretty new to C4FM and this form of digital mode, from
what I can see and from the experience I have had with it, it will be an
interesting option to play with.

I know we were planning on possibly doing a debrief on the Jaycee Parade we
just worked, and not sure how long people want to hang around to work all
these items.  Maybe we could get some feedback from members and committee
members on this?.

Josh, KD8HRX and myself at this time have 3 radios between us, I am sure we
could get a decent demo system up and running between us.  You up for that
Josh?

Let us know what everyone thinks.

Stay warm all.
