How to Understand Our Numbering System |
VP5CW Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands ARRL CW DX Contest February 19-21, 1999 |
All equipment items for the operation are in one huge
spreadsheet called the "Master Equipment List." Click on the link that follows
or go to the "Equipment" section, then click on "Master Equipment
List" ( http://asgard.kent.edu/ccc/vp5cw/master.vp5cw.htm
) to view this spreadsheet.Please be patient it is a large file.
The table is arranged by stations. Within a station, each item has a specific number (1
through 78). Thus, the rotor for the transmitting antenna for RUN would be designated as
equipment item RUN-73. Those numbers (1 - 78) also tie to a general station wiring
diagram. Which you can get by clicking on "Typical Station - Diagram and Component
Numbers" (http://asgard.kent.edu/ccc/vp5fxb/station/sld001.htm
). Look at the diagram and correlate it with the master equipment list and hopefully the
details will all make sense. It might also be helpful to look at the room layout diagram for the
Hamlet.
You can then go down to the section called "Info for Team Members" and click on
your callsign and look at the list of equipment items that you alone are responsible for
bringing.
