Description:

Greetings from Tom Garrisi - W8BNL
The first week in July here in Traverse City, we hold "The National Cherry Festival". I am the "Director of Communications" for the Festival and I handle all the UHF Radios and cell phones during the 8 day festival. I will also this year be setting up a OCF Dipole from my Comm Trailer and will have my HF rig on-site (local repeaters too on 2M & 440).
Anyway - - - I have applied for and received a "Special Event" call sign of N8C (never ate cherries?). I will be doing the "Special Event Transmitting" on Monday - July 6th. I plan to run the following schedule on that day (times are EDT).
0800-0930 3.980 MHz (+5 if occupied)
1100-1200 7.170 MHZ (SSTV of QSl card once every 10 minutes - 7.172 if occupied)
1500-1700 14.230 MHz (+5 of occupied)
1800-1900 7.170 MHZ (SSTV of QSL card once every 10 minutes - 7.172 if occupied)
2000-2200 3.980 MHz (+5 if occupied)
With this being the first "Special Event" I have ever tried, I have managed to get a couple of volunteers to assist me and maybe next year we can add a CW station.
Please let some of your friends out there know about this event. You can also visit my web page at [url]http://w8bnl.webs.com/hamradiospecialevent.htm[/url] to view a preliminary of the "SSTV QSO Card" I will be transmitting. If you do not have "Digital Mode" capability either email me or try to catch one of the scheduled times and during our QSO you can request an emailed copy of the QSL Card without the "watermark".
In the mean time - dah dit dah dit - dah dah dit dah 73 and best wishes from Tom W8BNL!!
