````````````````````````````````````````
We need Ham Radio Operators
2 meter mobiles and HTs
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
The Freeway 85 and 101 interchange maybe under construction !
This may effect the course and detours maybe used and need to
have a radio operator present!
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Looking for volunteers for the following assignments!
````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
SAG WAGON
Need Operators who have 2 meter mobile units that can quickly be
set up in Sag Wagon with more than 5 watts, ( quick power
connector and mag mount antenna), sorry a hand held just doesn't
work out in the hills . I did some tests out in the Back half of the
50 miler, and my 5 watt ht hit the repeater. So if you want
to try a ht on life support ( lots of adapters ) , then convince me.
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Motorcycle mobile
Equipment already installed and ready to go.
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Fixed Stations
A vehicle with a 2 meter mobile unit works fine.
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Bicycle Mobile
Anyone wishes to try must have some kind of 2 meter rig.
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Pedestrian Mobile
2 meter Hts somewhere between Helleyer Park and Metcalf Park.
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
