Hi All,

Our club, the Rogue Valley ARC, will also have a special call sign 
for Field Day--K7M.  We will operate 4A from a site on the Rogue 
River about an hour's drive from Medford.  There will be two CW and 
two phone stations.  I will operate one of the CW stations using a 
TH5DX and dipoles for 40 and 80.  The other CW station will combine 
CW with digital and will use a five-element monobander on 20 along 
with dipoles.  The two phone stations will share a three-element 
tribander using a triplexer.  They will probably have dipoles as 
well.  Our club has won Oregon two of the last three years running 
3A.  The year we didn't win we were operating 2A.  Even though 3A has 
been a winning strategy for us, we decided to run 4A to give more 
people a chance to operate.  We'll see how this works.  Give us a 
call if you hear us on.

73,

Dave, W7OQ
