Title: Some funny moments! Post by: xe1yzy on March 26, 2009, 11:39:43 PM In the following video, you can see some operation moments of our last XE Heavy metal rally...
The fun begins when the viking zorch its out a BIG RF spark, and blow the fuse, quickly we move the transmitter to the bench, and put in the air some other rig, I replace the fuse, and after check if everything was ok, Im start to load the final plate, but ups!, I forget that the viking was still in the "contest frecuency" ;D... The operator in turn made a BIG jump, because he listen a BIG carrier into his "heil" hedphones. with a full RF gain in the Collins 51J4!! Hope you enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVqZtj49gUQ 73's XE1YZY Title: Re: Some funny moments! Post by: w3jn on March 27, 2009, 08:45:52 AM Very cool, Pedro, thanks for sharing. Nice setup!

Very nice and thanks for sharing, that is a beautiful station setup. I used to be in Queretaro several times each year as part of executive MBA programs and providing some courses at ITESM but I haven't been down since 2003. Your city has the best strawberry milkshakes I have ever tasted and I still have cravings for them. I look forward to next years rally when I should be able to participate.

That video shows a great club station effort with lots of spirit! I like the cabinet full of old gear on display, the multi operating positions as well as the workbench. Looks like you guys have a lot of fun there. I assume you cannot go above 3.800 Mhz? Maybe we can meet you below 3800 for an AM QSO sometime soon. 40M is a good choice too. 73, Tom, K1JJ CT |
