We will be taking three K3s transceivers. All these radios have been upgraded with DynoLab LDMOS power amplifiers developed by RF engineer Hal Middleton, W7YNC, of Freeland Washington. These amplifiers achieve the objectives of the ARRL Clean Signal Initiative (CSI) and greatly reduce signal interference with other stations. The amplifiers also produce full regulated power of 100 Watts down to 11 Vdc and are unaffected by supply voltage changes due to supply lead voltage drop, generator variations or low battery conditions.

 

Additionally, we will take VDAs for  20m, 17m, 15, 12m and 10m along with three CrankIRs. We will be on mains power in bungalows with two Flex PGXL amplifiers and one Elecraft KPA500.
