[BVARC] Field Day coming up in 2 weeks!

[Allen Brier via BVARC]

All,

 

2024 Field Day is coming up in only two weeks! Be sure to sign up for
operating slots.your favorite slot may be taken by someone else if you
don't! https://tinyurl.com/5bukx37k

 

And still looking for one more K3/K3S to have as a backup radio (and power
supply). Contact me or add to the list:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uc_xqVcm28uSl0d6fCryzMtX3R3cuHoDJFBS
_uw8VLA/edit?usp=sharing

 

I will also be supplying the generator again this year. It is always good to
have a backup there, too. If you have one, let me or Richard Bonica know.

 

73,

 

Allen R. Brier N5XZ

Re: [BVARC] Field day question

[David Morefield via BVARC]

During the storm, I was on the CRHRC Net and also the Houston TG on DMR. The DMR TG was full of good info and I met several people. It was nice to be able to talk to folks as I sat in my closet ready for the impending doom. Luckily, no major damage at home, but my office got thrashed. For those who are not into DMR, I highly recommend it. The repeaters we have in this area are simply amazing. I am checking video this morning and I am gobsmacked with what it captured. David MorefieldNØLUV281.960.5253Check out my Photographyhttps://www.fluffyshotme.comOn May 22, 2024, at 07:59, M Reiter via BVARC  wrote:sorry brother, I live at magnum and 290 and could have gotten out my HT for the latest gossip.  the transmission lines behind your office are still being rebuilt.MarcKI5ZHOOn Fri, May 17, 2024 at 3:32 PM Richard Bonica via BVARC  wrote:To all,Does anyone mind if I take an hour on sat to run a round table on emergency response to incident?I now have a personal experience since my office is at Magnum and 290.

Hi John

With this reflector, the sender is always bvarc@bvarc.org even though it 
populates the name of the individual first, so all of us see the replies 
anyway. 

Richard,
I am responding only to you with a c.c. to Mike Hardwick.  I hate it 
when people needlessly "reply to all."


Not only do I not have a problem with your having a class at Field Day 
but I think it is a superb idea.  After all, FD is supposedly an 
emergency preparedness event.  However, it must not interfere with the 
ongoing on-the-air operations.  A large faction of the club like to 
make as many Qs as possible.  Yes, I will do CW, but I'm very casual 
about it.


I want to take this opportunity to congratulate you on your approach 
to managing field day.  Yes, there are a lot of members who are on 
"auto-pilot" and they know what they are doing.  It is imperative that 
you track all the various tasks so none are overlooked and on-track.  
This is a project that needs to be actively managed, and I don't know 
if you have an MBA or you dropped out of elementary school but 
regardless I like what I saw at the meeting.  I trust that you are 
using some sort of Project Management Document.  I was Chairperson of 
the Hamfest for about 10 years, taking it from 20 tables to 220 
tables; I used an Excel spread sheet listing all the tasks on separate 
lines, with columns (or other) to list the task leader, status, 
deadlines, critical action items, comments & notes without 
micromanaging.  However, there are 9 ways to skin a cat but the 
project management document must follow normally accepted business 
management practices to be successful.  I specifically like that you 
are letting the people who know what they are doing, do so rather than 
coming in like "a bull in a china closet" and "improving" across the 
board from the status quo.  It's best to pretty much, but not 
completely, do it the way it has been done with some tweaking the 
first year and then possibly making some significant changes (if you 
deem necessary) the 2nd year.  I also like that you want to return to 
the Firemen's Training Field next year as it has a lot of advantages 
with a lot of room, sometimes with separate buildings, a lot of 
"skyhooks" for antennas, etc.


Oh by the way, it might behoove you to go to Museum Ships Weekend 
which occurs 3 weeks before FD (May 31, June 1 and 2), assuming that

Re: [BVARC] Field day question

[John Chauvin via BVARC]

 Richard,I am responding only to you with a c.c. to Mike Hardwick.  I hate it 
when people needlessly "reply to all."
Not only do I not have a problem with your having a class at Field Day but I 
think it is a superb idea.  After all, FD is supposedly an emergency 
preparedness event.  However, it must not interfere with the ongoing on-the-air 
operations.  A large faction of the club like to make as many Qs as possible.  
Yes, I will do CW, but I'm very casual about it.
I want to take this opportunity to congratulate you on your approach to 
managing field day.  Yes, there are a lot of members who are on "auto-pilot" 
and they know what they are doing.  It is imperative that you track all the 
various tasks so none are overlooked and on-track.  This is a project that 
needs to be actively managed, and I don't know if you have an MBA or you 
dropped out of elementary school but regardless I like what I saw at the 
meeting.  I trust that you are using some sort of Project Management Document.  
I was Chairperson of the Hamfest for about 10 years, taking it from 20 tables 
to 220 tables; I used an Excel spread sheet listing all the tasks on separate 
lines, with columns (or other) to list the task leader, status, deadlines, 
critical action items, comments & notes without micromanaging.  However, there 
are 9 ways to skin a cat but the project management document must follow 
normally accepted business management practices to be successful.  I 
specifically like that you are letting the people who know what they are doing, 
do so rather than coming in like "a bull in a china closet" and "improving" 
across the board from the status quo.  It's best to pretty much, but not 
completely, do it the way it has been done with some tweaking the first year 
and then possibly making some significant changes (if you deem necessary) the 
2nd year.  I also like that you want to return to the Firemen's Training Field 
next year as it has a lot of advantages with a lot of room, sometimes with 
separate buildings, a lot of "skyhooks" for antennas, etc.
Oh by the way, it might behoove you to go to Museum Ships Weekend which occurs 
3 weeks before FD (May 31, June 1 and 2), assuming that the Pelican Island 
Causeway bridge has been reopened by then.  We have long ago dubbed this "A 
precursor to Field Day."  See a brief description in a block on the BVARC 
homepage; more detailed info will be published via the reflector as well as the 
BVARC web page within a week.  Also, you can check with Mark Janzer (Chairman) 
or me for more info.

Keep up the good work and I look forward to FD-2024.

[BVARC] Field day question

[Richard Bonica via BVARC]

To all,

Does anyone mind if I take an hour on sat to run a round table on emergency
response to incident?

I now have a personal experience since my office is at Magnum and 290. I
was also home when they hit 99 and West park. At home I had people answer -
but at 290 I felt VERY alone with no response. I have always been one for
ham and emergency - but until last night - I was clueless of what I realy
did not understand.

I would like to hold a round table and talk about 1 what is expected  2 how
to achieve this 3 hear what others do that I can do better.

Does anyone object??

Re: [BVARC] Field day thoughts...

[Richard Bonica via BVARC]

Well - I agree...
But I am measuring this year on the following:

1) Did everyone leave under their own power... And with all the appengages
they came with.
2) Did at least 1/2 the attendees smile?
3) Did we kick butt getting points?
4) Are we leaving the weekend talking about what we did or do we need 2
aspirin?
5) Did Daphnie's food get to Richard (Sorry - that was a personal mesure)
6) In the after action report, do we need to change a lot?
7) Did we ROBS for everyone?
 R) Respect and recognize everyone
 O) Give opportunities
 B) Make everyone feel like they belong
 S) Make everyone feel safe
8) Did everyone get a chance to speak up and be heard?
9) As a club, did we get to share a meal and social time with each other?

I come from the Emergency handling and mitigation - Every exercise and
event is a way to plan and be ready for a true incident.  After Action
Reports are important to me too.
The only thing I want to make sure of is that people give feedback and we
sort through emotional things and respond to the actual things we can fix.
When I do the after action report, I do not just say "well - this
sucked..." I also want to give a possible solution and why.

I hope that was clear, I do not want to throw out thoughts, but want to
make sure we are also working on things we can really fix.

 I was thinking about field day just now. I asked myself "Why do you do
 field day?" Well, that voice in my head answered back...

 "You are there to be with people that have a common goal and to show
 your skills."

 Next question - "What are my goals?"
 Again - "I want to test our skills as Emergency communicators. The
 level of success is measured by how many contacts, and who I show it to."

 That was followed by "When I am done, who will care?"
 That answer was -- "That is why I am inviting Schools and Government to
 see and hopefully get them involved in the hobby and leave a positive spot
 in the history of radio"

 That kind of refocused a few thoughts I have been talking about to
 people and realized that I am on the right path, just that everyone words
 it differently.
 We have the contest guy - they want points
 We have the social guys - they want to be with their kind
 and
 We have the guy who - let me show them what I can do.

 With those thoughts in mind, I propose the following
 1) bring the GOTA station to the main area - maybe in what I call the
 Fish Tank or the main entrance
 2) make the conference are the class room
 3) have people to volunteer to bring Home Brew items to display on
 entrance
 4) have a 1 hr block for people to describe their Home Brew
 5) We have someone designated as the "Youth Mentor" -- This person
 would be dedicated to welcoming youth that come and maybe introduce them to
 members and eventually become a point of contact for them
 6) We have a 1hr block for those who do our "Engineering" and make sure
 things work, take credit for their work and describe a bit of what they do.
 7) Also have a 1 hr block for Q and let our group share knowledge on
 the question or even maybe have a lookup on web time.

 With those steps, I hope people see what we do better and give others
 that are behind the scene a chance to thump their chest..
 Heck, maybe even Daphne and team can talk about cooking for a large
 group .. Maybe

 I plan on bringing a projector to shine on the wall, so we can all see
 what is going on on a computer that will be stationed in the main area too.

 Now with that said -- does anyone have any thoughts? (BE NICE I
 know there is a guy watching this reflector. ) And please do not hold back
 anything, I want this year to be the year of BVARC.
 And if you have thoughts about what Field day is, please let me know -
 let's try to see where that fits in too.

Re: [BVARC] Field day thoughts...

[Richard Bonica via BVARC]

Well , I have -- as a matter of fact everyone has stepped up and helped.

Again - and I can not say this enough

THANK YOU TO ALL THAT ARE HELPING ALREADY.

Everyone has their space and is doing what they can. I am letting them do
their job. I am simply pointing out what is missing and someone grabs it. I
have only had to ask.

BVARC is an example of people that if asked do what is needed and might
bark a bit but get the job done ..

Re: [BVARC] Field day thoughts...

[Rudolph Ackerman via BVARC]

 Work on organization - Allow people take the lead for tasks, areas, or 
activity's - Provide the list of leads to all other leads and volunteers, so 
they can work together with out being forced to deal with one bottle neck, that 
may or may not respond to calls or emails.   
 - All these leads and the tasks areas they are leading need to be listed on 
any web site, flier, and meeting notes.    That way if others are trying to 
reach some one they are not reduced to calling the one and only phone number 
that is listed on all BVARC docs, webs site that always goes to voice mail.  
 - If you are a lead, have a plan, with back ups, of what ever you are leading. 
   
  - Some examples of bad past planning 
     - Planning meetings being moved around all the time and as there 
was no list of volunteers, people were left off the meeting invites             
- PA system arrives 2 hours after start of event. - 2nd day of the 
event and people still asking how to pay for their tables that should have been 
paid for before they even allowed to setup
 - The event was over but the lead of the tear down group spent 
over 90 minutes on the phone trying to find out what needed to be done.    Due 
to this several volunteers gave up and went home.  Once breakdown did start 
the instructions were unclear and not complete.    As a result to many tables 
were broken down and put away, had to be set up again.        

Just my take on things, do with it what you wnat.

Great input Rich! I'm a believer in doing a survey after each major event. Do we know people's feedback? How do we me sure if the event was a success?

Re: [BVARC] Field day thoughts...

[Joe Vaught via BVARC]

I met with a new business partner Tuesday for lunch on a business opportunity.  
 The gentleman is the owner of a small computer manufacturing company in 
Houston.
As we were wrapping up he asked me If I knew anyone who could help him train 
his troop (Troop #11, 100 years old) to pass the Technician test and become 
active operators!  They have a dozen or so active scouts. Mr. Glen Wallin just 
bought a YAESU hand held and wants to get his license and lead his troop into 
HAM radio.

Since my new radio has yet to be on the air I thought we could put a class 
together.  He flew off his chair when I mentioned POTA;  Right up the scouts 
alley!!

How should I proceed?
Have another scout troop in mind as well.

Subject: [BVARC] Field day thoughts...

To All,,,
I was thinking about field day just now. I asked myself "Why do you do field 
day?" Well, that voice in my head answered back...

"You are there to be with people that have a common goal and to show your 
skills."

Next question - "What are my goals?"
Again - "I want to test our skills as Emergency communicators. The level of 
success is measured by how many contacts, and who I show it to."

That was followed by "When I am done, who will care?"
That answer was -- "That is why I am inviting Schools and Government to see and 
hopefully get them involved in the hobby and leave a positive spot in the 
history of radio"

That kind of refocused a few thoughts I have been talking about to people and 
realized that I am on the right path, just that everyone words it differently.
We have the contest guy - they want points
We have the social guys - they want to be with their kind
and
We have the guy who - let me show them what I can do.

With those thoughts in mind, I propose the following
1) bring the GOTA station to the main area - maybe in what I call the Fish Tank 
or the main entrance
2) make the conference are the class room
3) have people to volunteer to bring Home Brew items to display on entrance
4) have a 1 hr block for people to describe their Home Brew
5) We have someone designated as the "Youth Mentor" -- This person would be 
dedicated to welcoming youth that come and maybe introduce them to members and 
eventually become a point of contact for them
6) We have a 1hr block for those who do our "Engineering" and make sure things 
work, take credit for their work and describe a bit of what they do.
7) Also have a 1 hr block for Q and let our group share knowledge on the 
question or even maybe have a lookup on web time.

With those steps, I hope people see what we do better and give others that are 
behind the scene a chance to thump their chest..
Heck, maybe even Daphne and team can talk about cooking for a large group .. 
Maybe

I plan on bringing a projector to shine on the wall, so we can all see what is 
going on on a computer that will be stationed in the main area too.

Now with that said -- does anyone have any thoughts? (BE NICE I know there 
is a guy watching this reflector. ) And please do not hold back anything, I 
want this year to be the year of BVARC.
And if you have thoughts about what Field day is, please let me know - let's 
try to see where that fits in too.

Walter, 

Which balloon did you use on this launch?

Craig, 

 

The last known position was 17 minutes ago, at 52,000 feet altitude. Heading 
South-East through the Bermuda Triangle.

The wind patterns are extremely strange right now. 

 

We launched another package earlier this morning, and it danced circles all 
over NW Houston today.

This is indeed VERY cool! I’m assuming that there is a high pressure over the 
state that caused it to fly in that circle pattern… Or maybe it’s under control 
of a sinister genius 

Don't pay too much attention to the altitude as it takes a few solid packets to 
create the accurate altitude. It's still over 49k right now. Working well.

Re: [BVARC] Field Day Balloon is now over Georgia, the state not the Country

[Walter Holmes via BVARC]

It’s still flying high.

 

Every now and then we get some inconsistent reporting, so we get some bad data 
at times.

 

But yes, it’s still doing well.

 

Another in our group launched a balloon from the Johnson Space Center area 
earlier this morning, that has been dong some crazy flight patterns, like the 
one we launched Tuesday.

https://aprs.fi/#!mt=hybrid 
<https://aprs.fi/#!mt=hybrid=13=a%2FAB5SS-12=604800=604800>
 =13=a%2FAB5SS-12=604800=604800  is John’s AB5SS Pico 
tracker.

 

So plenty to watch for sure.

 

If you want to see ALL the ham radio balloons currently in the air, here’s a 
quick link that you can zoom in and out on.

Re: [BVARC] Field day

[James Burrough via BVARC]

 I really enjoyed the food, too. The team did a great job.
Another highlight for me was Dave McCarty's (N5GN) Contesting 101 presentation 
at 10 AM. I've been contesting a long time but learned a lot from his talk. The 
real beauty of it was that I opened the 15-meter FD station at 1 PM and, 
applying what Dave suggested in his talk, had the best 2-hour SSB run I have 
ever had. Very satisfying! Jim, N5DTTOn Sunday, June 25, 2023 at 10:13:03

With all the operators who do State QSO parties and other contests, why are not 
more of you signed up for operating slots at FD?



This is a great opportunity to use antennas better than you have at home, 
perhaps better radios, too, and do so with the possibility of mentoring by more 
experienced ops.



Condx are likely to be good and I'm hoping the end of this hot spell doesn't 
come with any FD rain.



The BVARC/KARS/TDXS FD is primarily organized by BVARC and they do a great job 
of making it almost turn-key for the ops who come.  The biggest missing thing 
is Butts In Chairs - the rest is well organized.



Please make plans to come out.



Here is my propagation band plan, which you can compare to the open slots on 
the sign up sheet at the link.  Lots of great hours are open!

Chris,

Yes walk-ins will be worked into any open position on Field Day. There
should be volunteers to get you added to the sheet on-site. This way we can
guarantee certain times, bands, and modes to folks who are planning to be
there. Any remaining slots can be picked up the day of the event.

Re: [BVARC] Field Day 2023 Sign-up sheets!

[Chris Medlin via BVARC]

Hey Kori,
I plan to come out at some point for a few hours and Id like to jump on a radio 
for some voice action… i just dont know when or how long I’ll be able to stay… 
can yall work in “walk-ins”? Or do all the time slots need to be formally 
filled?

I suspect I’m not the only one with the same question.

Tnx

Good morning BVARC,

They are finally here! The sign up sheets for all of our station operating

spots for you to sign up for, please sign up as soon as you can. We also need 
folks to operate our stations! Please plan on signing up for a few hours of

goes, 10m-20m are best during daylight hours, and 20m - 80m are best during the 
nighttime hours. Keep this in mind when signing up for spots. We will need many 
voice operators this year, so please sign up now. When you arrive you will be 
given some brief instructions as needed and there will be band plans, scripts 
on how to call CQ and other reference materials.

Volunteers, please sign up now, we will need approximately 8 people 
volunteering per hour for Saturday. Those are a lot of hours, so fill in where 
you can. We will need a crew for Friday to set up, help Saturday with the 
talk-in, information table etc., and a clean up crew for Sunday. See the 
sign-up sheet below and review the descriptions there. The volunteer frequency 
plan is also listed on the sign up sheet.

We will have our first meeting about Field Day at the BVARC General meeting on 
Thursday June 8th, and we will have at least one meeting every week from then 
until Field Day. Please stay up -to-date on the reflector news and the website

[BVARC] Field Day 2022 Results - Breakdown?

[R.S.Hradilek via BVARC]

We see the totals. I think a more detailed breakdown of the score 
would be interesting. One that would show...

Totals for SSB, FT4, FT8, CW, etc. on each band.
GOTA totals, also by band.
Bonus point breakdown
Anything else that is included in the bottom line.

All,

I am ECSTATIC to hear these results! I haven't seen anyone else commenting
on this yet, so I wanted to chime in and say congratulations to everyone.
There were SO MANY people who came out for us this year and made this
possible. We had BVARC, TDXS, KARS, and UHARC come together to represent
Houston area hams for this Field Day event. THANK YOU ALL! I also want to
make a quick shout out to our Field Day coordinator Anthony Morones
(W5LIC)! He did an excellent job. Now let's see about making the top spot
next year!?!?!?! I know we have the people, the resources, and the passion
to make it happen. Well done everyone!

Thanks and 73!

[BVARC] Field Day 2022 Results for KK5W

[Rick Hiller via BVARC]

The December 2022 QST has the Field Day results starting on page 60.   Our
10A category results are on page 69.  We are the only group reporting 10 A.

Results show us at 4318 QSO's146 participants and a final score of
17,442.  Not too shabby.  (in 2019 we had a score of 15,882 for a 6th place
finish.)

I had a quick scan of the total score columns and it looked like we were
3rd place in total score.  They did not list a top ten this year, or last
year.

Well done !  Congrats to all !

hundred QSOs for the club. 

 

Good luck to everyone and I'll be operating from home to add to the club's
aggregate points.

[BVARC] Field Day Weekend WX

[Rick Hiller via BVARC]

Stolen from the *spacecityweather.com * web
site..

"Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

These will be three baking hot days, with high temperatures of 100 degrees,
or slightly higher, for nearly all of the metro area away from the coast.
Skies will be sunny, and rain chances virtually non-existent. A more
southwesterly flow, instead of winds directly off the Gulf of Mexico,
should help with humidity levels a bit. Even so, there are a number of
outdoor activities this weekend and we really urge you to take heat and
sunshine precautions during the exceptionally hot weather this weekend."

Lets pray that the Duhacsek Park house AC does a reasonable job.  None the
less, wear a hat, light colored clothing and, lastly, bring your own cold
water *and drink it*.  Partake of the tree shaded areas or visit your car
for a few minutes to cool down throughout the 100 degree days.

I think we should get a QSO multiplier of 3 for those Q's made when the WX
is 100+  HI HI

Be safe out there..The Radio Hotel W5RH

[BVARC] Field Day Articles -- On The Air magazine

[Rick Hiller via BVARC]

The current *On The Air* magazine from ARRL has a few articles about Field
Day.

Meant for the beginning ham, but certainly they are applicable even to the
oldest of OM's.

Check it out in line at ARRL.org

Enjoy---Rick  W5RH

[BVARC] Field Day Interference Management -- NCJ May/June 2022

[Rick Hiller via BVARC]

The latest issue of NCJ, National Contest Journal, has a nice article about
minimizing interstation interference during Field Day operations.  Ultra
Sharp filters and antenna management are the key points.

Find the article about the USLL, Ultra Sharp Low Loss, filters in December
2021 NCJ.

NCJ is available on-line if you are an ARRL member.
