Hi everyone:
Yep! If you see LIVE video on my newly-created Field Day page @ http://www.qsl.net/kb0oxd/fieldday/ that means I'm working the bands. The broadcast is powered by BlogTV (Their URL is http://www.blogtv.com/ for those who don't know and are looking for a good home for their cam BTW). You can also see the video COMPLETE WITH LIVE CHAT simply by going to http://www.blogtv.com/People/kb0oxd and following any onscreen instructions there. In addition, I will be monitoring SEVERAL Internet-based DX Clusters on the computer for any activity which is headed for my QTH (Denver, CO USA - DM79). This will be done to avoid wasting bandwith unneccessarily and making futile CQ calls. I will primarily be on 6M USB, though I will be more than happy to work locals on 144 & 432 as well. I'll also be logging contacts and will post them here for your convience and so you may use that to cross-reference my information with what you have. **IF THE DX IS ROLLING IN** - I'm looking at being on cam from 10:00 AM till 2:00 PM in 90 minute increments. I'll then return on cam once I get the first four parts downloaded and moved off BlogTV so that I can archive anything in the evening on Saturday. I may be on cam on Sunday, then again, I may not. It all depends on how things go down. The reason I will be breaking the archives down into 90 minute archives is because BlogTV only allows up to 500 minutes (That's not quite 4.5 hours, but close enough) of disk space before you have to delete a show/segment, which of course I'm NOT about to do. ![]() **IF THE DX IS NOT ROLLING IN** - I will start broadcasting at 11:00 AM since some Field Day stations will begin operating at that time and will go from there as above (Just one hour later). I'll also be on EchoLink, but I will be in BUSY mode with Conferencing disabled with a "CQ FD 6M USB" or similar message in the dialog box. This way, if the DX is rolling in on 6M USB, all EchoLink stations will need to do is find me on the band. ![]() So....That's what I'll be doing this weekend. ![]() This video feed will also be used for other Ham-Related events as well (Info. on those events will be posted as warranted). Cheers & 73 ![]() Pat Cook, KB0OXD Denver, Colorado WEBSITE - http://www.qsl.net/kb0oxd/ **NEW VIDEO SECTION - http://www.qsl.net/kb0oxd/cybershacktv/ |
