AJ9K on FM birds from KL7 (2-11 July)
by dlittel tds.net 26 Jun '09

26 Jun '09

I will be on vacation in Alaska between July 1 - 11, and will try to be active during a few passes during my stay. I will be using my 5w VX-5R HT and AL800 whip on AO27, SO50 and AO51, if in mode J. Here's my schedule: 2 July2 BP51 Anchorage 3-4 July AO63 Dutch Harbor, Aleutian Isl 5-8 July BP64 Fairbanks 9-11 July BP42 Denali NP While in transit, I may be able to fit in a few more grids. Since this is a vacation, and I will have minimal control over my schedule (that's my family's job, and I'm only a minority voting member...). I hope to be as active as practical. 73, Dan AJ9K

Powering a UHF mast mound LNA from a TS2000

Does the Kenwood have a inline 12V power supply option like the Icom 821? I can't seem to find it? Or do I need to connect a separate power lead to my ARR mastmount amp? 73 Pieter ZS1PK/M0PAK -- This message is subject to the CSIR's copyright terms and conditions, e-mail legal notice, and implemented Open Document Format (ODF) standard.

Field Day Call Signs

Hey everyone, How about posting the call sign you'll be using over Field Day weekend for satellite contacts? Here, I'll be providing the satellite station for the combined FD effort of the Athens Amateur Radio Club and the Northeast Georgia ARC, and they have obtained the special 1x1 call W4G for Field Day. I know many of us will be using club calls over Field Day, and I'm interested in know "who will be who" this weekend. I'm also interested in CW contacts on AO-7, FO-29 and VO-52, so I hope those of you who will be working those three will bring a key or paddle along. If you do, please listen for W4G a few kHz below the middles of theses satellites' passbands. 73 to all, and enjoy Field Day! Tim - N3TL Athens, Ga. - EM84ha W4G for Field Day 2009
