2007 SDR Event in Lighthouse
In previous years we travelled to
the very north of Donegal in August and operated radio from a
lighthouse over a weekend. This year we hope to be a little
closer to home. This is a month after IOTA and will be a more
fun, less
pressured club event.
It should be great fun and I would recommend it to all SDR
members
especially those that haven't been on a club trip
before.
This year the date is Saturday 18th & Sunday 19th
August.
We plan to operate from a newly renovated
two bedroom house on site.
Assuming no workmen happen to be
there the same weekend we should be able
to stay there
overnight. But any available beds have been booked so it would
be sleeping bags or B&B.
We intend setting up HF and some sort of VHF etc. This event
is strictly NOT a contest and no prizes are awarded. It's just a
turn up and have the craic event! However it would be good
practice working a pile-up and computer logging. The idea is to
let everyone get on air as slow or fast as they want.
Any
club members interested should contact Dan
