W5YA will be active this coming up weekend, American Field Day. We
can work anyone, from DX need only RST. Ours is a two-man (class B)
catagory station, QRP, and battery power. My partner is Steve,
WD9FJL. We have been partners for nine years. Our site is at 9,000
ft altitude, near Chama, New Mexico. Our antennas are three
monoband Moxons that are instantly reversible with a relay, for 15,
20, and 40 meters. We will also have a dipole up for ten in case of
sporadic-e openings. The station will consist of a K3, with a K2 as
back-up radio.
May the only Murphy you meet be a Senor with chocolates in hand ;-)
Our school, K6GBM, will be operating field day too. The rig will be
the K2-100, with a tuner feeding either a 100' inverted-V doublet or
40' vertical. Power is PV panels and battery. We will be single-
operator, assisted with the kids doing almost all the operating.
(Dale, K6PJV, and I want to get a few contacts in.) The antennas were
chosen to allow kids to build them.
See you on the air!
