some of you AM'ers may want to play this weekend.
I may try around 29.000 -29.200 on my riceburner
note: if you are a TECH, you do not have A.M. fone privs , (or any privs above 28.500), so get a "control operator" and come out an play
heck, if you follow the linky, there is even a FREE logging program.
In addition to points, recognitions will be made on an ad-hoc basis, depending on the specific situation.
Examples of these are:
a) Unusually good operating practices, facilitating contacts, etc.
b) Very unusual or unique equipment
c) Most clip leads in the transmitter
d) Most hum or incidental FM
e) Longest transmission heard
f) Highest weight to power ratio
Etc, etc, etc.
Announcing the 2013
Amplitude Modulation Transmitter Rally
Contest and Operating Event
On the HF Amateur Bands (160 meters to 10 meters)
Date: Saturday, February 16th 6:00AM EST to
Monday, February 18th 02:00AM EST (11:00 PM PST Sunday, 2/17)
So, fire up those old Rangers, Valiants, DX-100s, Vikings or whatever you have - or, just flip the switch on your multi-mode transceiver to "AM", and join in the fun!!
