23-on-23 - December 23, 2019
Posted: Thu Dec 05, 2019 1:28 pm
Welcome to the December 23-on-23.
Monday 23 December 2019 is the next and final scheduled 23-on-23 for the decade!
It will provide another opportunity to activate your 1,296MHz and other uWave home or portable station capabilities.
Operations are typically 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
Alternative QRGs:
On FM try 1294.0MHz [National voice calling freq]
And don’t forget to call on your local 23cm repeater
If you are in SE VK4, you could try the following repeaters:
VK4RSC 1.2973.3 [Sunshine Coast]
VK4RMC 1,273.5MHz [Brisbane]
These events are designed to develop the level of activity on 23cm and above amateur bands.
Everyone is very welcome to participate. 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, by promoting with your local club, on other forums and FB pages.
Activity is not limited to stations within SE VK4, and the growing contingent from VK2 and even VK5 in the last couple of 23-on-23 activation events.
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 VKSpotter [https://vkspotter.com/] ‘2m and above’ page and chat, so that attention to 'exploiting' the path can be achieved.
Good luck to everyone.
