23-on-23 - February 23, 2014

[VK4CZ]

The next scheduled 23-on-23 is on Monday 23rd February 2014.

As this is still a work night for some of us, I recommend that we continue with the 'tried and tested' plan and operate as follows:

Phone/CW
Start time: 10:00z / 8:00pm AEST / 9:00pm ADST
QRG: 1,296.100MHz QSY for QSO’s then return

Digital
Start time: 10:30z / 8:30pm AEST / 9:00pm ADST
QRG: 1,296.225MHz (Mode JT65)

Liaison will be on 23 & Above iChat

For those of us operating from SE VK4, it would be great to see a few more stations to the north and/or south join in. It is also a Redcliffe & Districts Radio Club meeting night, so we may be down a few.... so if you know others that have 23cm capabilities, please extend the invitation to them to participate. It's no secret!

And, hopefully the WX event that we'll be living through over the next few days will have long left us, and we can look forward to hearing as many as possible on air on Mon Feb 23rd.

Well I'm hoping to be portable again from the top of Buderim on Monday night. I did think it might have been a Redcliffe meeting night so won't go too far away this time. I will only carry 23cm gear with me unless someone else decides they want to have a go on another M/wave band and then I will take some more gear with me. Hopefully this weather event will be long gone as I don't have any protection from the rain where I go portable.
Hope to catch you on air Monday night.

Well that's me out!

Just had a 'conference call' booked from 6:30pm - 8:00pm on Monday evening.... then a 10 minute walk to the car and a 40min drive home. That makes participating in this 23-on-23 impossible.

Got to love our French HQ and their 'acceptance' of the time difference

Have to leave it to the masses

Well it's not looking like much is going to happen tonight judging by the huge responses here. I'm still going portable but if it looks like rain (and it is forecast to rain tonight) I won't be going. I know some of you will be at the Redcliffe meeting but for those who won't be can you please let me know if you will be on air tonight. Would be a real pain to set up and have no one to talk to.

Cheers
