VARA/MARA 2026 Field Day CW Station: Solicitation for Operators

[David Tanks]

    Good morning! I am in charge of the CW station for this

  year's Field Day operation. Here are the ops I know will be

  there this year:

   Chris W4SVA

   Jeff  W4PJW

   Ray K2HYD

   David AD4TJ

   Chris has again requested to be on the late night shift,

  10 pm till the next person shows up! Due to my 

  unexpected heart problems my operating time will probably 

  be limited. Looking for the unknown-to-me CW ops who

  want to operate. Please let me know, and what times 

  you would like to sign up for. I'll do my best to coordinate 

  with everyone so we can have everyone happy and making

  lots of contacts! Of course, preference will be given to the

  3 ops listed above; I'll fill in as my time permits. The (all

  most) blank station schedule is attached to give you a 

  picture of the time slots available.

  I'll be bringing my Kenwood TS-2000X for the radio. It is a

  totally different animal than the Icom 756 Pro III of Jeff's!

  I'm working on a short tutorial with pictures to let you get 

  somewhat familiar with it before you actually have to use it.

  I also have attached the complete manual, for those who 

  want to see all the gory details of the radio!  

  Headphones will be provided, along with paddles, keyer, 24"

  monitor, laptop with external keyboard (I hate laptop

  keyboards!), etc. Oh, and a seat cushion to ease your time

  in the chair.

  And thanks to Jeff for providing the trailer and the EDZ

  antenna.

David,

Thanks.  I'm not sure if I'll be in town for Field Day, so I don't want to commit yet.  But if I am in the area, can you tell me what logging/rig control software you'll use so I can familiarize myself before the event.

Cheers,

Tom, KC5UN/4
