Are you a serious microwaver? One of those diehards who just can't stop
building stuff and go out at odd hours just to work that new grid?
Hurricanes are inevitable in FL. I'm sure another one will be coming our way
eventually. May as well
have fun with it and get creative.
First picture I get of a 10GHz and Up portable operator with gear out in a
hurricane or close to it (+/- 12 hours or so) wins a fabulous prize and
mention at the 2009 Orlando FLWSS meeting. Prefer a picture of you and your
gear with a rough surf in the background or sideways trees. (some indication
that the hurricane is near) No flying debris/dishes please. And no, I don't
expect you to be out in the middle of a CAT 5. Please use a little common
sense and self preservation.
Entries may be emailed to k4hv at arrl.net Prefer digital camera photos please.
Entries making a contact
will get bonus points! A relay to the NHC gets extra bonus points. Rain
scatter is a least possible. Please note the current weather conditions,
hurricane name, date, time, and location(6 letter grid is OK) with your
entry.
