FELD HELL CLUB AND 10 METER SPRINT

[K5CC]

FELD HELL CLUB

The Feld Hell club is a group dedicated to Hellschreiber, or Hell, a unique method of sending and receiving text using facsimile technology in which the characters are not decoded, but “painted” or printed on a screen. Several 10-10 members are active in the club including
Larry, N3LFC #61972 (Membership Manager), Dave, WB2HTO #14108 (Contest Manager) and
Floyd, KK3Q #26039 (Assistant Award Manager). Dave has advised 10-10 that the Fell Hell club
Is having a 10 meter Sprint on October 17, 2009 and that 10-10 members interested in this
digital mode are encouraged to participate. Working a 10-10 member is worth 10 extra points
in the Sprint. Information about the Fell Hell club can be found at http://www.feldhellclub.org and
about the Sprint at http://sites.google.com/site/feldhellclub/10-10-10. If you are into digital
modes give Feld Hell a try. It is a more laid back mode than PSK or RTTY. The Feld Hell club
has members around the world and has awards and contest programs. Membership is free and
Larry is the one to contact about joining. Jack K5CC

Hi Folks,

I just thought I'd drop a note here about the Sprint. Unfortunately the Band didn't cooperate! I was only able to decode a few bits over the several hours I listened in. No full callsigns so no Official QSOs were recorded. It is Nice to see the FH group put this event together. They are definitely doing Us a Great Favor by trying to increase activity on 10mtr. Kudos to the Feld Hell Club and the Others who were involved in this Fine Effort!
