September 19 at Fort Harrison State Park.
We plan to be on the air by noon with 2 HF stations.
We will be set up at our normal spot, in front of the Visitor Center.
There will be control operators on site to help get you on the air.
Both stations will have 2 positions, one for the operator and one for a logger, in case you need help logging.
The event will be using the club’s callsign of W9JP,
If you’re registered with the POTA system, you will get credit for the QSOs you make.
This event is open to everyone; YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A MEMBER OF THE IRC to attend.
As usual, we will have coffee, donuts, and water available for refreshments.
Even if you don’t want to operate, just stop on by to chat with everyone.
