Bands & Modes

Lets have some fun, and change up Bands & Modes a bit.

On the third Tuesday for bands and modes, from 20:30 to 21:00 we work for points, fun & prestige. all while improving our HF capabilities.

Here’s the plan.

  • 2 Points for any QSO on any band, using any mode.
  • 1 point for any QSO another station makes using the frequency you shared with the group.

1 bonus point for each QSO you post on QRZ.com

And for those of you who really want get big points,
10 points for any CW contact on any band.

Finally, as an incentive to help new hams use the tech area of 10M

2 bonus points for any QSO made by you or another station you sent to the tech area of the 10M band.

Our regular 10M frequency will continue to be our net frequency.
Points and frequency’s are to be reported to net control. Only then do the points count.
Net control will also keep track of who found a frequency we use for a QSO’s.

The winner will receive an official, LDARC, ATABOY.

All QSO’s must be made using modes and frequencies indicated on the icom band plan linked here
As always, only operate within the parameters of your FCC license.

I just made all of this up so any feedback you have will be appreciated.

What Bands & Modes would you be interested in trying?

We have been conducting exercises to test usability, and viability of some Bands and Modes for two way voice communication.

Our Eagle Net is every Tuesday at 20:00. Recently we have been moving to other bands and or modes around 20:30. Announcements are made on the preceding Roster Net. We have worked 10, 40, 80 meters.

On Wednesday after our Digital Only Net we sometimes move to C4FM on 2 meters. We have also used C4FM on 10m and 70cm.

This has been a popular thing to do so please join us for some simplex fun. It’s a great way to “play radio” and learn something along the way. Generally KN6RBP will be dual monitoring the Hemet Hangout or K6LDF our club repeater. That way if you’re out of range or having difficulty with your radio, you can stay in communication with the group.
