Mountain Amateur Radio in 2009

As has become tradition, in the 'last weekend in June, namely 27 and 28 took place' s 2009 edition of "RADIO AMATEURS IN THE MOUNTAINS."

The purpose of the event (... or the mission, as they say those who speak well) is to meet each OM, members and supporters Cisar, once a 'year in the mountains to make amateur radio activities.

This seems so simple, but all need for good organization of men and means and this was made possible by all 'commitment of the President of Marche Cisar, iw6dse and all the board and not only ...

I am the person least suited to do the record of the event as being in a thousand other chores busy I only did two quick "touch and go" on the summit of Mount Murano where 's was just being set up "base camp". However I was able to follow the fervent preparations for the implementation of infrastructure, 3 tents have been installed (it looks like a biblical quotation), various antennas, the directives for the 10 and 2 meters the rows for the 40 and and 80 meters for various V and UHF collinear and a generator to provide power to 220 volts to the field.

My commitment, which I failed miserably, was to bring the signal WI-FI network at the National camp, but ... it was the 'excessive confidence in the ability of given the link is relatively short, perhaps the imperfect alignment of the antennas or, more likely in a few obstacles that stood between the two places, perhaps a bit 'of bad luck ... the fact is that the connection has failed! As "mitigation" is generic to say that the inclement weather was really peaceful there have been moments in sudden downpours complete with thunder and lightning flashes! These conditions of the WX has very limited activities also encouraging amateur radio operators to disconnect the connectors from the antennas and equipment shelter in tents ... then joined to poor HF propagation could be called a failure ... But no!

In this "climate", however, showed the team spirit, the desire to stay together, work as a team, come together to talk, to discuss planning for the future and have lunch, dinner and breakfast together in the large central tent and sleeping (and snoring!) in the sleeping bag still in tents.

The event ended Sunday with the dismantling of the camp where he gave a decisive hand (!?) Also iw5cgm, Giuseppe (unbelievable, just the national president!), The material was then placed in a able van that had straginato (voc. Ancona) up on top.

before leaving the summit of Mount we delivered two special "QSL" to remind the President and ik0yuk, Mauro 's efforts in the context of' association.

The true conclusion took place at the table in a wonderful frame (as always ... say those who speak well) of the Country House restaurant a few steps away from the now former, the base camp.

place charming and typical food and excellent quality, even the adjusted price (in the discount promotional message ... hopefully in the next issue) but, most importantly, sympathetic with the stories of i6jau, Piergiorgio of his first steps into the world of radio in 'immediate postwar period. The rumors are then go three and a flow of memories and above all other future projects ... and after fruit, dessert, coffee and coffee kills we laid off by giving us an appointment the next edition.

For me and

iw6aol, Stephen 's adventure is not over here we went with Joseph and Maureen to do a "walk" (maintenance) to Bocca Trabaria, but this is a' different story ...

Ancona ATV Contest 2009 Contest

this Contest, including all activities amateur radio is, certainly to me, the most heard, even the most views ( hi!) , ATV or the Contest organized by the ARI Ancona.
This contest is unique in its kind, should have the task of encouraging the 'amateur radio activities of this type of issue, it is easy to imagine the satisfaction of seeing the same as well, of course, hear! But it seems that this fascination is not so strong ... because the 'small number of participants to the event. The causes? Mah? Perhaps Radio Amateurs are lazy, all now elderly, media stoned or all lights in front of the PC links to Skype ... easier yes but where is the satisfaction ...!?
Apart from that little outburst the day was fun, we met with Fabio and Marco without major problems, apart from the PLL Fadio saperene who did not want to attach to 2 GHz and that I could not see Mark (because my LNC suffered the heat). Connecting
inressante was with Alexander, IW6CHN / 6, which are able to glimpse only the exciter with Comtech by a dozen milliwatts and then it glides on smoothly with the 1-Watt (low). Instead
nothing to do with John IK6EFN who went on the beach at Porto San Giorgio, we tried in every possible way but nothing to do! But
highlight of the contest was' now traditional link with IW3RMR, Alessandro; in the afternoon its bridges I came in perfectly and I could also to hook them, then from there I asked Ali to go out and make a direct link to the Contest. We managed to see both on the 13 cm to 23 cm with optimal signal!
turning on the various repeaters, between various inputs and outputs I also saw John signal gorgeous, but then we could not repeat the miracle once discovered the 'secret!
Day after all "positive" ... hopefully better next year!

10 GHz FM "old mode"

Well yes! Even amateurs suffer from nostalgia, we also do some good historical re-enactments! In fact
our intent when we decided to hold this contest, was something quite different, namely to give a chance to the new OM or to those who had not experienced the magic of the season pioneers of microwave can (re) experience the emotions of the 10 GHz FM. With modern techniques, materials and tools available today to make a full-duplex device for X-band is not so impossible. For a few years ago in this section (ARI Ancona), we conducted a series of Gigafoni , or rather several members, under the supervision of Fabio and Marco I6CXB IW6DCN, assembled, tested and tested each one on your device.
Obviously, once implemented, would try to road and therefore it was decided to hold a contest to test your equipment "on air" and not just on the bench, it was decided in June, also because, with the 'opportunity, you could do some good outings on some cocuzzoletto!
After the 'enthusiasm of first editions now the number of participants has leveled off, fortunately there is also some OM out section in each edition makes some attempt ...
Quest 'year we had a special appearance by Luke I6QIZ who chose the location of the Cathedral of Ancona and the series ... you never stop learning, we can not establish a connection "full duplex", and I felt Luke did not hear me! I little power in TX or deaf I6QIZ the receiver? It will be the subject of future research! These tests are also used and / or above for that. While connecting
Fabio and Marco was very easy to want the closeness that for many QSO already made in previous editions.

Microwave Contest - June 2009 -

Every first full weekend of the month contest is held in the Microwave 'scope of ARI trophies.
Again I worked with France to the success of the Contest bringing men and equipment to the cause ! What focus! In reality, as always, I brought part of the 'equipment and support precisely two meters, the 23 centimeters, and 5.7 GHz and various ornaments to make possible and comfortable (so to speak) connections. For men ... We came to see my brother with his PC, his keys and various wi-fi has given us a hand in the internet for chat on4kst .
As for the race ... without infamy and without praise , the usual shower (now part of the definition: time to contest ) made us start the race later on Sunday. For what
regarding the "bad luck" is not bad, the 'power of the TWT has a tantrum, sparkles, crackles, it stinks .... but we have not lost' s mind, we disconnected the tube (TWT) and we continued in QRP / p (a few tens of milliwatts) failing to make some other nice QSO beyond the 300 km!

60th Anniversary of Founding of Ancona sez.ARI

Quest' now exactly ten years since the fiftieth it is "celebrated" the Foundation of the sixtieth ARI Ancona (... I think it right, otherwise it would not be the sixtieth ...), always in the splendid setting of 'Hotel la Source Portonovo with approximately the same faces, perhaps with a few more gray hairs ( or less, understood as a human hair), some arugula and some chiletto (always more) but still with lots of enthusiasm and desire to tell us!
These events are always occasions for both of us that meet up to deal with the realities of the local area both at institutional and technical production.
In this sense, were guests of the event by Dr.. Busca to departmental director for Communic oni (Ministry of Economic Development) to the responsibility of civil protection of the Marche Region, Roberto Oreficini then move on to a company representative Messi and Paoloni, company Anconetana production of coaxial cables of excellent charac policies, closer to the needs of amateur radio.
The event was also discussed activities of the section in the last decade and especially our support for civil protection activities during the recent earthquake dell 'Aquila.
were finally rewarded, as is the promising young Nicholas that Old OM, or those enrolled for more than 40 years at 'ARI.
Then, Needless to say, when you are done a certain time, after the 'drink, all with their feet under the table to enjoy an excellent and elegant dining in the restaurant' s Hotel.
Over dinner, between courses and the other, the extracts were rich prizes and just to prove that luck is czech, power went to those who build and design the instruments to those who sell them and so on ...
Seriously, these are always great opportunities to meet and exchange ideas to strengthen the spirit of association and plan future initiatives.
As always, some pictures, perhaps the best documented 'event are on Picasa, you can access the' album by clicking here.
