UKuG 10GHz contest this Sunday.

Post by G4EWJ » Tue Jul 26, 2016 9:47 am

Is anyone going to be out? I've been tidying up the 10GHz narrowband receive system and want to give it a try. The tx is still in progress.

I could take some ATV gear if anyone else is. I'll probably be in North Wales at Rhosesmor or Dolphin, with a good takeoff from north to south-east.

Hi Brian,

I am not going to be out this weekend - will be at the AMSAT colloquium :-( To check NB activity you need to watch the UKmicrowave Yahoo Group.

I will be out on the Saturday only during the August activity weekend and potentially going to Dunstable Downs with all bands including 10 GHz, so should be good to work you on somewhere like Merryton and also Rob on NYM.

Thanks, I'll join the group.

I'll probably be going to Anchor, Shopshire again for August. That would be a good one to Dunstable downs - about 190km.

Hi Brian

Unfortunately, I will also be at the AMSAT Colloquium, so not active on Sunday, even though I've just refurbished my 10 GHz set-up for RB-TV and SSB.

I see that Rob is planning to be out with IO94MJ with 10 GHz and 146 MHz DATV/RB-TV.

Yes i may be out/p..

The response from others to the narrowband contest is nil so far... so may abandon it yet.

Hi Rob,

Many of us will be attending the AMSAT meeting this weekend so I doubt there will be much activity. Why not come down to Guildford?

I can confirm i will be out /p tomorrow from IO94MJ with 2m/3cm Narrow-band ssb and RBTV.
144.175MHz ssb talkback on the yagi, or 144.750 FM on vertical.

It looks like it's going to be a very quiet day tomorrow, so we're going to leave it until next month for our first attempt at a 10GHz contest.
