Comments:
ROLL OUT TEST OF REMOTELY OPERATED CONTEST STATION. N9NC OPERATING FROM NH.
W0YR OPERATING FROM K4VV SHACK OR FROM HOME LOCATION. Several
breaks/iterruptions at actual station location to reset or fix things or sleep.
OVERALL, A VERY SUCCESSFUL TEST. For initial test we used three different
fully-featured and remote-accessable operating positions. (Asked ARRL Contest
Division guys for permission. They stated that as long as all rigs/ants within
500 M circle, it made no diff where oprs were.) Thanks to Jack, K4VV for
letting us try this. It was truly amazing to operate a 1.5 kW station with
full control from miles and miles away. This included remote control and
monitoring of Acom 2000 amps and the ability to change antennas and rotate them
from far away. We have a long checklist of mods/improvements but it all came
together. If there is another remotely op'd Multi-Multi stn, please let W0YR
know. Would like to compare notes. W0YR@aol.com
