Stations at Field Day sites are encouraged to use their HF rigs with
general coverage receivers capable of the receiving below the AM
broadcast band and whatever antennas they might have on site to listen
for these stations and others (HF dipoles and verticals are probably
best, antenna tuners in bypass).
Reports are very much appreciated and can be sent to the respective
station operators, but stations are also encouraged to enter reports
athttp://w5jgv.com/enterlogs.htm AND take advantage of potential Field
Day points by sending NTS traffic to the ARRL to let them know who was
heard. (10-points per message up to 100 points). The ARRL's contact
information is 225 Main St., Newington, CT 06111, 860 594 0200.
This event has been organized to promote awareness of the new MW and
LW allocations as proposed by the FCC and is neither sanctioned by nor
affiliated with the ARRL. Its simply an opportunity where hams and ham
gear come together for a fun weekend and we hope to add yet another
layer to the mix.
73 and have a safe, happy and fun Field Day weekend!
John KB5NJD / WG2XIQ
