Amateur Radio Fun in the Colorado Mountains
Sunday, August 12, 2007

Amateur Radio operators from around Colorado will be climbing many of 
Colorado's 14,000-foot mountains to set up amateur radio stations in an 
effort to communicate with other radio amateurs across the state and around 
the world. Join in on the fun Sunday, August 12th 2007 and see how many of 
the mountaintop stations you can contact. The prime operating hours are from 
approximately 9 AM to noon local time (1500 to 1800 UTC), but activity may 
occur at other times during the day. Most mountaintop stations will be 
running low power handheld radios. Stations running high power need to keep 
in mind that they can interfere with stations they cannot hear.

Two awards to encourage mountaintop operating throughout the year are 
available. The Summit Award is given to radio amateurs that contact 10 or 
more peaks and the Pinnacle Award is for operating from 5 or more peaks.

Radio operators with 14er climbing experience who plan to climb a 14er 
should log their name and intended peak at the HAM 14er Yahoo group.
