[Wswss] Fwd: [NCCC] ARRL VHF 220 Special Station

[kr7o at vhfdx.com]

Commemorate the DTV transition.



>If all goes well, we will be operating a 220 SSB and FM transmitter from 
>the KOVR channel 13 antenna on Saturday.  Probably late afternoon/evening.
>
>Obviously, with the analog shutdown, we are able to do this, but as a 
>one-time-only situation, since we are turning the transmission line over 
>to another station soon.  KOVR uses a circularly polarized antenna at 2049 
>feet above ground, in Walnut Grove, CA.  The antenna should play well on 
>the 220 band.
>
>We plan on using one of Bill's calls: W6CBS or W6RCA.  Since KOVR is owned 
>by CBS, it would be cool to use that call, but the antenna was built by 
>RCA.  Bill just has the right calls!
>
>We will not be in the contest.  Just handing out points.  If we make 
>enough contacts, I may do a special QSL card if there is any interest.
>
>SSB will be around 222.1
>
>FM will be around 223.5
