GCEGinc Q-News for 28 Mar 2010
I’m Trevor Taege, VK4BAT with news from the Gympie Communications & Electronics Group:
What a great weekend it was with several Club members making the trip up to Mt. Wolvi
for the John Moyle Memorial Field Day Contest. The score for this year was certainly
an improvement on last year’s effort and there’s talk now of our little group running
for the full 24 hours in the 2011 event. The weather was and will usually be
challenging and so it will influence the final decision. The less than perfect
weather was part of the exercise in the portable situation and some experience from
last year’s trip was used to improve the setup this time round. Thanks to all the
Club members who participated and also to the stations that gave us contact numbers.
It was agreed by all involved that the weekend was a lot of fun and very successful.
The Gympie group is having a meeting with a Council representative to exchange more
information about the Club’s involvement in the “Tracey 2ö simulated cyclone exercise.
The GCEG will be assisted by the Sunshine Coast Amateur Radio Club who will be
bringing their Wicen Van Comms Centre to the exercise and thus ensuring a fully
equipped representation of Amateur Radio comms. Thanks once again to SCARC for their
support. The event is planned for late June in the Tin Can Bay area. We’ll have
more information following the meeting with Council.
The next Club meeting is at 7:30pm this Thursday, the 1st of April in the basement of
Leading Edge Electronics in Gympie. Entrance is via Reef St. All members and
visitors are most welcome.
For Gympie Area News, I’m Trevor Taege, VK4BAT.
