Margaretsville Light Activation Updated

Hello everyone,

Just a reminder that a group of us plan to operate from the Margaretsville Lighthouse this Sunday, 25 September. We will start setting up mid-morning, and plan to be on the air by noon. We’ll operate until 1600 or so.

We will have stations on CW and/or SSB on 40 and 20m, and will operate several digital modes on the 30m band. Antennas will include dipoles and quarter-wave verticals.

The forecast looks good – a mix of sun and clouds. It will be a little cool, so you may want to bring a jacket. If you plan to spend much time there, snacks and something to drink are advised.

Once again, this is a low-stress operation. Emphasis will be placed on having fun and learning how to set up an effective station in the field.

While several people have indicated that they plan to be there, we always have room for more! I hope to see you there!
