This could be a chance to do the VHF radio testing, which had been proposed some months ago but only one or two people expressed interest.
What would be needed is
1. A bunch of boats docked/anchored fairly close together, with someone aboard to operate the radio(s)
2. A person to sit with the receiver at least a couple of hundred yards away. They would need maybe a table and 120VAC power.
3. Coordination
There have been hundreds of thousands of computer keystrokes expended on discussions of what constitutes a good radio installation; here is a chance to get some real data on real boats of our fleet.
The original thread proposing the test is here:
