Once again we will be onsite at the San Felipe de Austin State Historic Site.  This year, we’ll be operating near the new visitor center, most likely in the same location we were set up for the grand opening back in April.

We will have an SSB station set up with a 500 watt amplifier, so we should be able to make some contacts despite the approaching solar minimum.  Planned frequencies are 20m and 40m.

If you are a Technician license, this is a good opportunity to get some experience - you will be able to legally operate on HF with the club’s call sign since we’ll have higher license holders there.
