Greg, You might want to consider doing this within the Winter Field Day event. There are 'indoor', 'outdoor' and 'home' categories. The next event is Jan 29-30, 2022. See www.winterfieldday.com for details.
I had fun operating the event in Jan 2021 from a portable beach house site using a K3/100. Due to a logging mistake on my part, my score did not get reported. 73, Henry - K4TMC On Fri, Dec 17, 2021 at 9:14 AM Greg Herman <kc9...@gmail.com> wrote: > This is just a suggestion and forgive me if I’m not aware of something that > already exists.
