W1NAS / ARC of the former South Weymouth Naval Air Station, SES

On Saturday, August 19, 2017, from 0900-1500 EDT (1300-1900 UTC) W1NAS will again be operating on 20 and hopefully 40 meters phone to commemorate the flight of the blimp Snow Goose from NAS South Weymouth to Resolute Bay on the Arctic Circle, while the submarine USS "Nautilus" sailed beneath them under the polar ice cap. This SES has been well received the past two years and many contacts have been made with sailors who had been stationed at SoWey or its predecessor, NAS Squantum. If you served in any branch of the service, especially the U.S. Navy, or had even served at SoWey in any capacity, please make an effort to contact us and let us know you served. We'd love to hear from you! W1NAS is the ARC of the Shea Naval Aviation Museum located in the old gymnasium building of the former NAS. Check us out at www.qrz.com/db/w1nas or at www.anapatriotsquadron.org. For more information contact Steve, W1OD, at w1od@arrl.net.

 

ADDENDUM: We'll also be operating in the CW portions of 20 and 40 meters, on 7.039+/- and 14.039+/- as well as the phone portions. We hope to make contact with you!
