23 on 23: Sunday December 23rd 2018
Posted: Sat Dec 22, 2018 1:12 pm
Welcome to the December 23-on-23.
Since it's just a couple of days before the fat, red suited nordic fella arrives [sorry if this description offends or resembles someone you know], this months 23-on-23 might have to be a night time event even though it falls on a weekend!
So Sunday December 23rd is the next scheduled 23-on-23 - providing another opportunity to activate your 1,296MHz and other uWave home or portable station capabilities.
Activity could be conducted as follows :
Phone/CW
Start time: 10:00z / 8:00pm AEST / 9:00pm ADST
QRG: 1,296.100MHz
Digital and 2,403MHz
Start time: 11:00z / 9:00pm AEST
23cm QRG: 1,296.225MHz (Mode JT65)
13cm QRG: 2,403.100MHz USB
These events are designed to develop the level of activity on 23cm and above amateur bands.
Please do not hesitate to share with others who you know have capability and see if we can continue to grow the numbers of participating stations.
Activity is not limited to stations within SE VK4, and the growing contingent from VK2. Everyone is very welcome to participate. Please share and promote on other forums and FB pages.
As is often proven, if the participating stations are unaware of your operation, there is a high likelihood that you won’t be worked. [Quite simple and very logical really !] Please take a moment to share advice of your participation here, and on the night log into VKLogger.com on the evening and the ‘23&Above’ iChat page, so that attention to 'exploiting' the path can be achieved.
Even though it's a weekend, I may not be available due to the street X-Mas party being held on my driveway. But my ‘good fortune’ shouldn’t impact others from participating… so get on and activate 23cm and 13cm!
Good luck to everyone.
