    A Special Event honoring 20 years of the AZsQRPIONS QRP Club will be held April 26, 1400-2359UTC at the unique relic of the cold war nuclear deterrent: the TITAN MISSILE MUSEUM in Green Valley AZ dedicated by Ronald Reagan to creating an ongoing awareness of the Armagedon that would result from a nuclear exchange. Everyone should be guided through the silo and control rooms to get a sense of the reality of it all. The CLUB will use the site's primary antenna -- a broadband DISCONE with a fairly flat SWR from 1.8-30Mhz, with low nodes in most of the ham bands. We will operate with QRP rigs such as the KX3, QRP+, ICOM703, Wilderness Sierra and others. Fregs: s.s.s.-- 14270Mhz, 18930Mhz, 21280Mhz, & 28370Mhz, +/-20Khz; c.w. --14020, 18072, 21030, 28015, +/-10Khz. We will call " CQ TITAN de K5JS". Details and photos of the DISCONE monster can be viewed at the http://www.gvarc.us link to the MISSILE SITE. Special QSL on receipt of your QSL (mail: Ade Weiss W0RSP, 810 N. Placita la Canoa, Green Valley, AZ 85614. QRO stations certainly invited to let us know we're getting out -- and to practice copying weak DX signals and local QRP signals! Win-win! CU de TITAN!
