Bring your key and 'phones or use ours (but be advised that some modern electronic keys may not work with the K6KPH keying system so bugs and straight keys are encouraged). Show up early so we can familiarize you with the K6KPH equipment and procedures. You'll be using fixed frequency 1.5kW commercial transmitters 20 miles from the receive/control site so operations are a little different from usual amateur practice!
