[List at K4FAU.org] Field Day Organization spreadsheet

[Sjaak van Dam]

Hi John and Nelson,

It looks like the list that was send was not the updated list from the
last BRARA meeting.

I have a couple of questions / remarks regarding the FD list:

- With the change in setup do we still need the Boynton van?
- I thought that at the last meeting it was decided to have the CW
station do PSK31 (not the GOTA station). NE4LS's interface is for the
FT-897 that will be used for the CW station (because of the CW
filter).
- Isn't Ron W2DO bringing his IC-756 Pro for the SSB station? I prefer
to have a rig that has dual RX so that you can run on one VFO and look
for multies on the 2nd VFO.
- What is a IC-917? Did you mean the IC-718 like we have at T6? If so
it might be better to use this rig for the GOTA station so that new
hams can familiarize them selves with this rig and come to T6 after FD
and be able to use the rig there.
- I have a full set of bandpass filters to mitigate some of the
interference between the stations.
- K4FAU also has a B & W antenna.
- I still would like to use the K4FAU tri-band antenna for the SSB. I
will check it out B 4 FD
- I case we don't get a breeze we should bring some fans. K4FAU has a
big box fan and I will also bring a fan.
- We should be BAR-B-Q-ing and cooking on the top floor (not to set
off any sprinklers or upset FAU parking / police) next to the
staircase. K4FAU should have a 10x10 canopy somewhere to give the
chefs some shade.
- 6M? We also discussed 6M during the last BRARA meeting. I can bring
my IC-706 MKII-G for 6M. Who can bring an antenna? K4LEW? KE4IDW? I
think there is a LPA for 26 to 70 MHZ at T6 we could use.
- Hank N3HV is looking to score some food for Saturday lunch.
- Saturday dinner was going to include barbecue right? Also Lew
mentioned Pizza as a Saturday night snack for the late night ops.
- What time do we start setup? 9:30?

Just my $0.02
