Labor Day Week-end - LSB 16 revival effort

[Rick330man]

Some of you have already seen this idea floated on another thread. I thought I'd go ahead and start a dedicated thread so that everyone on WWDX interested could get the news that we're going to try our LSB 16 revival effort again over the Labor Day week-end.

Like our past LSB 16 revival efforts, I'm posting a proposed schedule for hailing. This is in no way intended to make anyone feel limited. In other words, go for it at any time. The goal in proposing the schedule you see below is just to try to improve our chances of making contacts by coordinating when folks might be on. The recommendation - and it is only that - is that folks work around the following hailing schedule for LSB 16 on Saturday, August 31st; Sunday, September 1st and Monday, September 2nd.

9:00A.M. eastern/8:00A.M. central/6:00A.M. pacific;
12:00 noon eastern/11:00A.M. central/9:00A.M. pacific;
3:00P.M. eastern/2:00P.M. central/12:00 noon pacific;
6:00P.M. eastern/5:00P.M. central/3:00P.M. pacific; and
9:00P.M. eastern/8:00P.M. central/6:00P.M. pacific.

Mother Nature hasn't been too cooperative with our prior efforts. I'm hoping that a little luck and a little organization could help our chances.

Catch you on LSB 16!

I'm down on 16LSB, not going to 38LSB for the whole month of September. Kinda like a no shave November, but instead a no 38LSB September. Someone's gonna hear me dammit

 

[wildchild455]

I have yet to hear anything but noise and AM there but will try this weekend

I'm watching Dorian too. The early cones included the Keys and the Miami area. The more recent ones have us out of it with Miami/Ft. Lauderdale being the southwestern extreme end.

We took a direct hit here from Irma two years ago. I don't care to see another hurricane this way for a long time. I'd much rather be worried about my SWRs than whether my house is going to be destroyed.

Good luck.

I will monitor when I can and hope for the best.

Yeah you folks in Florida be safe, and those around the coastal line that this storm may travel also.

I think it's a great idea. Unfortunately I won't be involved because my antennas down.
If I were on Air I'd be there. Good luck for a successful channel 16 ssb "throwback" get together. 73 PS. I hope mother nature throws yally a bone.

My IC-751 tunes 11m +/- a bit after a little RAM editing a few weeks ago. I'll give it a go and see if I can get anything. Hopefully we get some favorable conditions.
