W1AW/7
One more time!
The final Centennial Celebration Operation from Nevada will commence next Tuesday, 10/21, at 5PM and end on Tuesday, 10/28 at 5PM. W1AW/7 will be housed at the Comstock Memorial Station, W7RN, outside Virginia City. We have three operating positions and will be active on CW, SSB, RTTY and PSK-31, on 160, 80, 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, 12, 10 and 6 Meters.
We made 30,000 QSO’s in April and the enthusiasm for working the W1AW/X stations appears to still be strong. It is your chance to be rare DX.
We would like to keep the station manned 24/7. If you are interested in operating, please contact me by email or phone. All are welcome, even just to watch. License class is not an issue as we will have control operators present.
Also, if there are any stations in NV that would like to participate as W1AW/7 NV, we are looking for stations with antennas and equipment that will be sufficiently loud to control a pileup, be capable of committing to a specific band/mode and time and be able to staff the station for significant time periods. We cannot have more than one band/mode at a time and the volunteer stations must be closely coordinated and keep computerized logs.
