June 23-on-23 Activation Event
VK4CZ > 16-06-2023, 03:59 PM
Welcome to the June 23-on-23.
Friday June 23, 2023 is the next scheduled 23-on-23 for 2023!
The 23-on-23 activation events continue to provide an opportunity to activate your 1,296MHz and other uWave home station capabilities, and engage with other like-minded amateurs - a great opportunity to test things just ahead of Field Day.
Operations are typically conducted as follows:
Phone/CW- Start time: 10:00z / 8:00pm AEST
- QRG: 1,296.100MHz
- Start time: 11:00z / 9:00pm AEST
- 23cm QRG: 1,296.225MHz (Mode JT65)
- 13cm QRG: 2,400.100MHz or 2,403.100MHz USB
- 9cm QRG: 3,398.100MHz
Everyone is very welcome to participate. Please do not hesitate to share with others who you know have capability and see if we can continue to grow the numbers of participating stations, by promoting with your local club, on other forums and FB pages.
And activity is not limited to stations within SE VK4, and the ever growing contingent from VK2 in 23-on-23 activation events.
As is often proven, if the participating stations are unaware of your operation, there is a higher likelihood that you won’t be worked. [Quite simple and very logical really!] Please take a moment to share advice of your participation here, and on the night log into VKSpotter ‘23cm and above’ chat and let everyone know, so that attention to 'exploiting' the path can be achieved.
I’m often asked when the next 23-on-23 is. Really! They're not hard to plan for – and it should come as a surprise, but there's a 23rd day every single month.
Unfortunately, some of us are still of the 'working class' and whilst we might not be able to make all, at least aim to activate in a few.
Good luck to everyone.
