WQ4RP going Solar
There is an interesting article about WQ4RP going solar. Since that is the Knightlites contest station perhaps we could get some more details from one of our local Knightlite that checks in on the Jarsprep net.

There are some great pictures on that site and a detailed explanation on how they hooked it up. I know JJ (nc4jj) who is a silent key and a prep net stalwart was running his shack on solar and we have several others that are doing the same. If you have not thought about solar then you may want to review the article.
Looking forward to hearing you on the radio tonight at 9:00 PM on the AK4H repeater as we have our weekly rag chew about preparedness. Whether you enjoy listening on your radio, scanner, or even echolink it is a check in driven net so if you have your technician license or higher feel free to hit the PTT button. If you have not gotten your ticket yet please let us know what we can do to help.
I’m glad to hear that Jarsprep found the article on Solar Power to be of interest. Please let your members know that they are welcome to schedule a site visit, or they may contact me for further information.
