Quartzsite Quartzfest
Wednesday, January 10th, 2007The annual Quartzfest at Quartzsite is fast approaching. We will be there for the week (Jan 22-26), and we will be away from email (most likely), and from the shop. This will also place a small interruption into orders. The batch I am working on now will hopefully be shipped before the campout, new orders will be delayed a week or so.
We do a presentation at the Quartzfest. It is scheduled for Thursday of the week and may involve an actual launch if safety requirements are all met.
We don’t sell product at Quartzfest but if you want me to bring something let me know far in advance.
We have been doing some modelling of a nice antenna setup for launching. The Vertical I-Pole is a ground independent vertical dipole that is easy to put up with a launcher and a couple of tall trees. We have modelled designs for 160 through 40 meters. Looks like a good candidate for field day:
Safe Launching!
