g0ozs Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Jon I can't help with a vehicle but if you have access to an Amateur radio station we will be happy to give you a call from a similar event here at the Suffolk Aviation Heritage group near Ipswich on the Sunday - we hope to have most of the Clansman radios that went South operational on the day Regards & best wishes for your event Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g0ozs Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Hi Probably mostly 14MHz as the 322 is unconverted so USB only - we may try 3.615MHz AM first thing around 11am - our callsign will be GB2CRF There is a topic for it somewhere under future events with no recent replies, if you want to continue there...

g0ozs Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I agree - you are probably too close - I expect to start on 3.615 MHz AM or 7.187 MHz AM subject to conditions and interference before moving up to 14MHz to hunt as many other countries as I can. I will PM you my mobile and direct e-mail so you can ask for an update on our working frequency during the day. What callsign should we listen out for ?

Panzer nut Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 No wories, we cant have active comms due to the proximity of the naval comms. They fear we may interfere with them. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
