During our July monthly meeting the club decided to investigate whether to build a remote radio station (RRS). To clarify how we think an RRS might be used, the club will run an RRS user-needs workshop on Saturday 27 July from 1000-1115 in the club rooms.
Ian (VK3KO) will facilitate the workshop and it will be your opportunity to have a say on what you think a useful FAMPARC remote facility should provide. We will also identify any operating or technical constraints which any design should consider.
Could you please make note of you interest or thoughts below in the comments area.
Just a reminder that this FAMPARC Remote Radio System (RRS) user workshop is on THIS SATURDAY at 1000. This is our opportunity to discuss how FAMPARC members might use a RRS and what features it would need to have in order to be useful.
Some members might use a RRS regularly, but some might find it occasionally useful when doing home experiments? Let's try and understand the potential usage profiles.

I have zilch chance of putting up an HF antenna at my…
