Museum Ships Weekend
The Trident Amateur Radio Club will be participating in the Museum Ships Weekend. The club will activate the H L Hunley Confederate submarine. The activation date is usually the first weekend in June. Stay tuned for announcements and details.
For details about the Museum Ships on the Air Weekend visit http://www.nj2bb.org/museum/
We plan to activate the HL Hunley submarine for “Museum Ships”. We logged just under 1000 contacts in previous years- help us set a new “personal best” this year!
Bands: Look for us on 20m and 40m, where our antenna works well. We will try other bands throughout the event, if the antenna cooperates, but 20/40 is usually the best place to find us.
Modes: We’ll be working SSB phone most of the time, but will give FT8 a try if the phone contacts run dry.
(We’re serious about making this year our best year yet! Please spot us if you work us. We like http://www.dxsummit.fi/ , or use your favorite spotting net.).
73 and happy hunting! N4HLH and the W4D Radio Crew!
For the HL Hunley we will operate from the boat yard adjacent to the Warren Lash Conservation Center, the home of the H L Hunley.
STAY TUNED FOR MORE INFORMATION ON MUSEUM SHIPS, WE WILL UPDATE THIS PAGE!
