Hi, I'm a long way away from home and so forgot my password, etc so am starting anew. My call sign is VA7DH and I guess I should have used that as a handle instead of northernscout. Sigh!  Anyway I am Victoria BC STake communication specialist and Victoria BC 2nd ward emergency preparedness speciali

To: N7YLA - Both LDSHAMS & WW-MARA are both up and running - We had Nevada Power put in new digital meters (Not my idea) - and it whacked LDSMAMS - which had been running for almost a year 320+ days straight w/o a hitch.  BTW - CQICC is also mine - It is up - but I cant access it - Im checking into

LDS Hams Field Day?
« on: November 11, 2009, 10:56:44 AM »
I am thinking it might be fun to put together a field day for LDS Hams.

What limitations would be reasonable for an event?
Allow all wireless modes and frequencies?
Allow IRLP and/or Echolink?

Any other considerations we should weigh?

Please vote and sound off with your reply to this post.

Thanks!
Rob

It would work if we could get enough Mormon Hams involved.  It could also be a good chance to show off our abilities and get others interested.

This is something we need to work on for 2011. WE do not need to have it on Field Day weekend. We can have it anytime we want. I will work with some others who are interested. email me at my call @arrl.net

I am setting up a Deland Florida Stake Field Day during our Stake Fugal Fair May 21, 2011.  The Goals are as follows:
- Establish communications between all Wards on simplex.
- Establish communications with the Deland Stake and Orlando Bishop Storehouse.
- Establish communications with the Southeast & Northeast ERC Nets.
- Contact as many other LDS Hams as possible.
- Build interest in Ham Radio with Local Membership.

The Stake will have Family Emergency Preparedness/Communications, Gardening, Budgeting, etc. booths setup at the Stake Center.

Having lost communications for 2 weeks during the 2004 Hurricanes and avoiding several near misses in 2010, we want to be better prepared.

I would like to invite all those Hams, Wards & Stakes that are interested to Join us to improve our ability to communicate during emergencies.

I will be providing the HF frequencies we will be using in the next few weeks.

Thanks for your help.
