LxPedition (noun) - Just like a HAM DxPedition except no sponsors, you use your own money, and if all goes wrong you can walk back home (if you really want).












**** SPECIAL NOTICE ****
Those of you who worked me in the Georgia QSO Party say so in your
membership request. Photos of the earphone wire dipole will be posted
in the next day or so. I took photos of it before I took it down
Sunday evening, and will take closeups of it to post as well.

Bill, KB4KFT, was operating from Wilkinson County, GA

************************

While reading messages and looking at photos posted here is encouraged membership with message posting and other group rights is limited to those who have actually participated in an event. To participate, follow the schedules and make contact on-air with an LxPedition participant. Mention the date/time and frequency in your membership request to the group. If you cannot make a QSO then report who you heard when and where and that will be good enough.

What is an event?

First is a temporary set up done while traveling for business or vacation. This type involves posting a simple schedule of times and frequencies and attempting to make contact.

Second, a lunch time approximately one hour event for 10 meters. No sun spots yet so these have been mainly Atlanta metro area events so far - really local - though the range of 10 meter is really impressive when the band is quiet.

And then there are mini-field days and mobile/portable operations. Basically just go out somewhere, set up and operate, sometimes with several stations in operation. This group also recognizes local special event stations if schedules are posted on the group.

If you do not have posting rights yet feel free to email one of the moderators and we'll take care of that for you.

The goals are
DO SOMETHING,
SHARE WHAT YOU DO,
and most of all
*HAVE FUN DOING IT!

There you go - enjoy.

Bill, KB4KFT
