This month's second Sunday Tech Sesion will be at
Tanyard Creek Park, on Collier Road between Peachtree Road and
Northside Drive (just west of Piedmont Hospital). Time will be from
about 2pm till dusk on Setember 12th.

 

Think of this as a relaxed, mini field day type event.

Due to the time of day we will probably concentrate on the 10, 15,
17, 20, and 40 meter bands. There is sometimes a VHF/UHF contest in
mid-September on the second weekend... if this is the weekend there
may be some VHF/UHF gear up and running SSB.

If you have a radio or gear you want to try or show off, bring it
on. Got an antenna you want to try out, bring it and we'll try it
out. Want to learn about HF operation, come learn. This would be a
good opportunity for newly minted Technicians to get a taste of HF
and well seasoned HF hams to show off.
