[Mldxcc] CQP saturday

[Jeff Stai]

hi - as happens every year, our big annual local wine festival is scheduled 
for the same saturday as the first day of the Cal QSO party.

If you think you might like to use my station on that saturday during the 
day (I'll use it when the event is over), please drop me a note or see me 
this saturday at the meeting.

The expected station configuration is as follows:

two FT1000Ds with InRad filters
W5XD Multi-keyer set up for SO2R with Writelog
ACOM amps for each rig
3-el Steppir tribander 10/15/20
Sigma40 and Sigma80 verticals for 40 and 80
Sigma40XK vertical set up for 20 for 2nd radio
low dipole for 80 for 2nd radio
MANUAL antenna switching
I may or may not have bandpass filters and stubs in place (counting on cross 
polarization and separation of antennas to be 'good enough')

I plan to operate some minor and one major contest between now and then to 
wring out this configuration.

Last year, with the one FT1000D and amp and the Steppir, I worked 600 
stations in the last six hours on sunday on phone.
