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
