W0EEA Skeds

I have been receiving numerous sked requests, mostly from other users of eQSL.
I have been spending a great deal of time on K3UK's LoTW Sked Page of late. Those wishing to work me
should log in there and see if I am around. I have been on there enough to earn an ARRL LoTW Triple Play
Award. I have yet to confirm 100 countries on LoTW and am working on DXCC totals at this time.
I'll be on for most of ARRL and CQ's contests and as many others as I can manage.

W0EEA operating Field Day 2006 class 2E

Using the battery stack configured as four 12V 1000 AH batteries.
The top battery powered an inverter for room lights, computers, rotors, etc.
The middle two each powered an Icom IC-756 ProIII. The bottom 12V section was held as a spare.
The spare was not needed. We checked the batteries every few hours and found that we could have
operated in the manner we did this weekend for several more days before we came anywhere near the battery's limits.

This picture with the camera's flash on shows more detail on the battery stack.
It feels very strange and quiet to be operating in there with almost everything turned off.
Usually there are many fans in the power amps running all the time but not during Field Day.

Feild Day Station
For this Field Day the antennas we used were all dipoles. We checked 6M once in a while
but it never really opened well while we were listening so we never needed the rotors.
We have permits to build five towers, but are still waiting for the base plates and anchors to arrive.
