[IRCA] Fwd: WG2XFQ on 486Khz....

[Brett Saylor <bds2@xxxxxxx>]

All,

Brian, WA1ZMS, in Forest VA plans to re-run a replica of Reginald
Fessenden’s first aural transmission on New Year’s Eve; he first ran the
transmission on 486 kHz this past Christmas eve under the WD2XSH/31
experimental call sign, and I was able to hear the broadcast in
Pennsylvania. Please see the forwarded email below for the details of his
New Year's Eve transmission. Brian is active in 600 meter experimental work
and collects early wireless gear. You can see the transmitter that Brian
uses at this URL: http://w4dex.com/500khz/wd2xsh31.htm

If you do log his station, I am sure he would appreciate a report.

73,

Brett Saylor
