I will actually be in town this time!

Will probably bring the Spec An and try to use the VSA software. May bring the 8920 just for grins.

Regards,

Tom.

Glad you'll be able to make it!

We're at 15 Grandon Road, 2nd house in on the west side of Far Hills.
Grandon is about 1/2 mile north of Dorothy Lane.  To make things interesting, east of Far Hills, Grandon becomes Corona so the street sign is different depending on which side you look at.

The best landmark is the Chabad Jewish Center on the south side of Grandon.  They have a sign on the corner.  We're directly opposite on the north side of Grandon.  Our phone is 299-8445 in case you need talk-in.

Parking is only allowed on the south side of Grandon.

The garage door will be open, and you can come in that way -- the door on the right side of the garage leads directly to the basement stairs.
Just come on down.

John,

I'm in - I'll be playing with the imaginary spec an. Could you post
directions to you house again (I know it's just off Far Hills, but I'm
a little fuzzy after that - may be just fuzzy anyway).

Just a reminder about Wednesday evening's event.  All are welcome to
come over to the basement, whether to observe or to participate.  Just
let me know ahead of time so I can have enough chairs and snacks.

The test itself starts at 9:45 and only lasts about 15 minutes.
Arrival any time after 7:00 is OK, but please don't arrive after 9:30
-- we'll be busy then!

73,
John

Hi All --

The ARRL Frequency Measuring Test is coming up on Wednesday, November
16th.  As usual, I'll be hosting an FMT party at my place -- I'll
provide frequency standards, lousy antennas, bench space, and snacks;
you provide your measuring gear.

The test runs from 9:45PM to about 10:00; folks will probably want to
arrive at 8:00 or earlier to get things warmed up.  In addition, if
anyone wants to set up ahead of time, we can have a work party on
Saturday or Sunday next week; I'm pretty open as to time, so just let
me know.

Details of the test are at
http://www.arrl.org/w1aw/fmt/2005/05fmtsilver.pdf.  The format is the
same as last year -- W1AW will transmit an SSB signal on an announced
frequency, modulated with a single tone; what you're supposed to
report is the audio frequency of the tone.  The frequencies will be
160/80/40 (which is different than last year -- they dropped 20 and
added 160, which is probably better for us).

Please let me know if you'd like to participate, and if you'd like to
have a weekend setup/work session.

73,
John
