READY OR NOT , HERE WE COME
Here's the plan or VE6AO
We will have a transceivers active on 2m - 146.550 FM,
70cm - 446.000 FM, plus 1.25m - 223.5 FM, All share a vertical antenna at 90 feet.
Our west station will be available operating on FM or SSB on VHF frequencies using a variety of antenna at 65 feet.
For the first half hour starting at noon our antenna array will be pointing NNW in hopes of picking up activity in DO22 on 6m - 50.125 , 2m 144.200 and 432.100 SSB
The bearing at top of our tower is still an issue so we will be turning the beam by hand toward other GRIDS SQUARES north of Calgary.
We will then move the beams to focus on stations due south of us and mainly look for 6 meter openings for the rest of the contest.
We can move to 52.525 FM simplex if someone with FM mode only needs a multiplier .
NEW this year we are hoping to get a temporary antenna up for the 1200meg band. Look for us later in the day on 1294.5 Meg FM.
CONTACT US ON 146550 FM to FIND OUT WHAT BANDS AND MODE WE ARE ACTIVE ON.
Most activity occurs when the contest starts at noon local time in Calgary on Saturday September 10th.
Hope to hear you on the air...
