Field Day is coming fast so we need to start our planning now. We will be using the Success Community Center in Saucier, MS. It is air-conditioned so rain or shine we will be “cool.” The club will operate 2A MS again this year. Last year we missed 2nd place by less than 100 points….
On Saturday, November 19, 2016, MDXA will again participate in the National Parks on the Air event from Davis Bayou in Ocean Springs, MS. We will be operating as W5NO with two stations primarily on 40m, 20m and 17m. Modes will include SSB, CW and hopefully RTTY and PSK31. For more information visit our Facebook…
