Transmitter is the prototype of the 'First', a D-Class Fet transmitter, delivering 130 Watts. The transmitting earial is vertical wire attached to a Kite (a Para-Foile). Formerly we succeeded to bring out several hundred meters of antenna wire. This wire is specially made; it's litze with a kevlar core. It's obvious, that transmitting with the kite-earial is weather depending (windforce abt 2 to 5 bft and no thunderstorms, hi) Nico will receive on a active antenna and/or the kite-earial. This time Nico will n o t be qrv from his home qth Eenrum (JO33FI), but from the Fieldday location called 'Smeerling' which is in the provence of Groningen, close to the German border, abt 45 km southeast of Groningen City (JO33AM?). Nico qrv sked (weather depending) will be as follows .... sat june 5th, all day sun june 6th, all day mon june 7th, as fm 1900 utc tue june 8th, as fm 1900 utc wed june 9th, as fm 1900 utc thu june 10th, as fm 1900 utc fri june 11th, as fm 1900 utc sat june 12th, nico's day off (not qrv!) sun june 13th, all day Reports are welcome. You can contact Nico either by his Packet adress pa3njn@pi8awt.#gro.nld.eu or via me ( or the lf reflector). The Dx cluster is also attended. Nico is operating under the so called 'STERRAZA' Group, which organises several field days a year. The Sterraza Group will be active the same period on HF, VHF and UHF bands under the call PI4HSG. So when you meet Nico on HF (CW) you know the Wx is too bad for the Kite or the wind just fails to blow.
