G'day All,


I'll be giving it another go and will be attempting to broadcast the HF Comms for "Pit****er to Coffs Harbour Ocean Race 2008" - (Race
details http://www.pit****ertocoffs.com.au/). This race starts Jan 2nd 2008

Similar to The "Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race" they use 6516 khz as primary race freq and 4483 khz as alternative race freq. The schedules
Skeds for position and weather reports can be found at the bottom of this email.

My Broadcast will start shortly after the Race has start or even slightly before. Here is my USTREAM URL for the broadcast:

http://ustream.tv/channel/pw2ch-ocean-race

***** CALL FOR MORE BROADCASTER *****

If there is anyone else who would be interested and willing to set up a broadcast and cover the race frequencies using USTREAM.TV as its
free and fairly easy to setup and does not require any software to be install perse as it uses Flash program to broadcast sound and video.
You can opt to broadcast just sound or both sound and video.

If you are willing to setup a broadcast for the whole approx 2 day race or just even for the Skeds, could you please let me know via
(please note it the double underscore) and or with in this forum, so that we can all enjoy

The more the merrier as during Sydney to Hobart Race, the HF Propagation was poor at times, and if we can get people close to the race as
well as interstate for the skip the better chance that one of the other broadcasts would the better to listen to.

One final note for those setting up a USTREAM TV broadcast, I've just created mine, and when it asked for the BROADCAST name of the show it
spat the dummy at the word "Pit****er". So For the show name, try using hyphen or abrev such as PW.

Regards
Mark
