New subject: [Moon] Microwave Activity Weekends 2016

21 Mar 2016

For newcomers: The idea of activity weekends is to encourage activity on the higher
microwave bands outside contest weekends. There are no restrictions... if you wish then
use the logger, telephone, HF....and use any mode. It is not  a contest. It enables
everyone to make QSOs, test new equipment, feeds, preamps etc. Hopefully some of the big
guns get on and provide signals for newcomers to look for.

Although co-incidence of lowest loss and high declination ( which we know gives the
highest levels of activity) is slowly getting better year by year it is still hard to find
good weekend dates not already committed.
My proposals for 2016 are  June 11/12 9cm, July 30/31 3cm, August 27/28 6cm, and September
17/18 13cm
If anyone has any better suggestions, please make them. In past years these weekends have
proved useful but there is no pressure to participate!
