Watts Up This Week

Hello from Shaver Lake, CA where it’s 90 degrees with a lite breeze. The final push is here!!! Hot RF nights is this Saturday.
If you’re setting up a go-kit or displaying your mobile install, please arrive at 3PM for setup. Doors open for attendees at 4PM. It will be hard to stage vehicles once the doors open so please arrive during the setup window if you plan to attend. We still need your help though. Please talk up Hot RF nights on any and all nets you attend.

This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in what goes into an operation, gaining an appreciation of those that make it possible for hams to work exotic locations, and understanding the challenges involved in traveling abroad with radio equipment.
