EMDRC is once again offering to assist the VK3 Microwave community in running a Spring Test and Tune day in preparation for the vhf/uhf field day's 2014
The club rooms and club facilities will once again be made available and we are interested in expanding this year's event to allow some tuning and optimisation, we are working on having a selection of test equipment available, and some experts

The day is also perfect for those interested in higher bands, but not sure where or how to start, with lots of gear/ideas and people to talk with and see how its done.
All the typical microwave bands are expected to be going, a chance to dust off the gear and get it going for the summer portable activity.
As usual, the BBQ will be running for lunch, cold drinks in the fridge, maybe even a raffle! With the event starting in the morning ~9am and extending through the day as long as is needed.
We would love some feedback from interested people to help choose a day that will allow as many interested parties to attend as possible, it would be great if people could help by voting for a day that they feel would be best suited, The current preferred day is Sunday ~9th November, this is 2 weeks before spring field day, but the final date will be decided by the masses.
It would also be great to see by reply any interest in the event, of course we would only open the club rooms and offer to host such a day if their was interest.
More details will be provided as we get closer to the event. Initially, we need to agree on a day!. (advertised early to generate discussion at Gippstech)
The EMDRC club room is located at the Milpara Scout group hall, 13A McCubbin St Burwood. You can find it on Melways reference map 61-E7. Entry to the hall is via the driveway from McCubbin St. Look for the Green Letter Box, the drive is next to it. There is parking available both in front and around the scout hall.
