This is a joint HCRA and FCARC effort. An opportunity to meet people and share ideas for portable and mobile HF operations. This is a first-time effort, so let’s be casual and have fun.
Please participate, drop by or catch us on the air. We’ll be using the W1NY call sign.
When: this Sunday, January 29th from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm
Where: 1500 West St, Amherst, MA 01002 (https://goo.gl/maps/
Indoor restrooms are available
Food: Atkins Farm (https://www.atkinsfarms.com)
What to Bring: mobile and portable gear you have handy. Toys such as an IC-705, a mobile HF station, and various antennas will be available along with DC power. Bring your gear to use and show those attending. Share Your Knowledge!
We expect most operations will be from the parking lot. We’re going to try to be in the upper portion of the left parking lot. Look for antennas and call signs on cars and hams. We shouldn’t be hard to find.
There are 2 SOTA opportunities available to the intrepid.
