2018 Ham & Eggs Event

[Mendocino]

Dave,
You might want to look at the Broomfield Commons Open Space. It's close to I-25 and has a lot of room for rigs and parking. Here is a link: https://www.broomfield.org/2209/9-Broomfield-County-Commons-Open-Space

Great place, just don't show up during a soccer tournament.

 

[PaveLow]

Bump! Is this going to happen?

 

[DaveInDenver]

Yes, but it looks like it will have to be the 14th or 21st. The 28th is out for me now. I haven't heard any complaint with that place in Broomfield so I guess that's OK. I haven't had time to drive down there and scope it out to see if it's suitable, though.

Please let me know ASAP if anyone needs components since I'll need to get them ordered or you'll need to get over to HRO ahead of time. I have a couple of PL259s and some coax but not a ton. Test equipment is taken care of. I'll have an antenna analyzer, a USB vector network analyzer (really fancy antenna analyzer), a butane soldering iron.

I vote on for the 21st. I'm busy the 14th.

 

[DaveInDenver]

Alright, absent complaint it will be April 21st at Broomfield Commons. Just realize the 14th is Cruise Moab training, whoops.

 

[BerettaMato]

The 21st works for me.

Dave,

I have a lot of LMR-400 in I think 30 meter lengths if anyone wants to set up a base at home. I'm happy to bring some of this as a raffle prize if you are interested.

Dave,

Will you be able to do the custom programming on my 857D in my 40?

Actually, I do have the cable and software for an FT-857.

Dave take a look and see what you think maybe I can save you a trip. Has 4 big parking lots with soccer fields in between. Has restrooms and places to sit down. Tim and I live directly down the street. Let me know if I can do anymore recon for you.

Thinking about getting into Hamm and will stop in to see what it's all about.

Thanks Adrian for scouting it. That looks fine so hoping there's not a ton of soccer games I guess.

I'm planning on being there.

I have cable to program a Baofeng BF-F9. Pretty sure it will work with a few others of Baofengs if someone has one of their HT's they want to program.

Also, check out this link: Colorado Repeater List. Great way to start a programing list for repeaters.

 

[DaveInDenver]

Chirp can probably program most radios people own in the club, so it's more a question of cables I'm betting (so I listed radios for which I have cables I know work). I have stand alone software as well as Chirp, I'm confident we'll get it worked out.

 

[Rezarf]

I can see the commons from my house, I'll be there.

 

[DaveInDenver]

If you see my updated first post I posed the question about the "Eggs" part. Is there interest in doing more than bagels and coffee? Would there be more than 2 of us willing to commit to maybe a buffet/potluck at 9AM?
