t’s still a fair ways out, but I’d like to make some plans. I see a couple of options. First, we could take the SIG gear out and have our own group event. I think that has a lot going for it, but since we don’t have a club call we’d need to use our own calls and it might get a little muddled as to what classification to use in the exchange and for submitting the logs. I do have a generator we can use if we go this route. If you’re a fan of this idea can you suggest some possible sites? Ideally we would want someplace we could do some winter camping, a cabin, or at least where we can be and have our gear set up overnight. A geographic high point would be nice. Not being from around these parts I don’t really know the area that well.
Our other option would be to hook up with a local club who’s already planning things and selected a site, and who’s willing to let us come in and set up some antennas and radios and help them with their points in exchange for using their club call. Again, I’m not from around here so I don’t really know what clubs are around here that might be amenable. I know @richmeyer is a member of the Plano group and @grumble is with the metrocrest group. Do either of them have any plans for winter field day?
