    Ok group, this is the first questions I have for a few of you to help do some pre-coordination:

    The list shows the following:
    Radios + headphones – 2 – WA5VHU, 7300 – KF5ZMA, 1 – KC5KOH, 2+6-NV7Z, MARS – N5DDS

    My (WA5VHU) ONE radio that I am bringing will be an Icom IC-7300 that covers 160 thru 6 meters and my large loop antenna will also cover the same range assuming the SGC-237 coupler will tune the loop over that frequency range.

    KF5ZMA, you are shown as also bringing and IC-7300 radio. What antenna do you plan to use, what frequency range do you plan to operate and where do you expect to put your antenna?

    KC5KOH, you are shown as bringing one radio. What antenna do you plan to use, what frequency range do you plan to operate and where do you expect to put your antenna?

    NV7Z, you are shown as also bringing, that is great! What antenna do you plan to use and where do you expect to put your antenna?

    N5DDS, you are shown as also bringing a radio for MARS. Do you plan to operate only on MARS or also on the Ham bands? What kind of radio and antenna do you plan to use, what frequency range do you plan to operate and where do you expect to put your antenna? Please remember that even though you may be operating on some MARS frequencies that are just outside the Ham bands you may still cause local interference to receivers on the Ham band in your frequency range.

    Who else is bringing a radio and antenna and planning to operate? If so, please let us know the answer to the common questions above.

    73,
    Charles
