  Ok it is time to put the operating schedule in place for this weekend.  Here is what I have so far but I need some more details:

  K2DRN David - Available and lives close by
  AB2YH Marty - Available but does not have keys and is new to the station
  AB2IO Mike - Available
  K2QM Dan - Limited Availability
  N2EA Jim - Life has gone to the dogs and he has to take care of them this weekend.
  N2WKS Zev - Available from 9PM Saturday and most of the day Sunday

  Please respond with the following information:
  What day/hours are you available so I can put together the schedule.
  How many hours can you operate in a row
  Can you do an overnight or early early early morning shift (3am to 7am)

  Assumption is that we are doing M/S with only one rig on the air.

  Please respond and I will send out an operating schedule for approval.  

  160 has been open to Israel every night this week and Europe has been loud so expect the low bands to be busy.

  Looking forward to a great contest!

    Ok so ARRL DX CW is behind us.  The station played great except I think the shield on the 160 meter antenna is letting RF into the shack because the internet connection kept dropping on that band (possibly 80 too). 


    So the SSB contest is March 6/7/8.  Are you guys up for a M/S?  Please send me availability so we can put together a good schedule.  


    BTW David I worked china on 20 at about 5pm and India called in on 40 meters at about 6 pm

      Hello, 


         This will serve as an electronic introduction between Zev N2KWS, David K2DRN,  Marty AB2YH, Jim N2EA and Mike AB2iO.    As I explained to Zev earlier today, I am completely swamped at work and will have only a limited amount of time to participate in this weekend's contest.   Zev will help organize things.    


          My preliminary thinking is that I should be able to make it to the W2ZQ shack for a few hours on Saturday.   We can use that time to extend the 80 m Vee and also to break in new ops.   Zev will come on line later Sat. night.
