Lots of us here have Rock Mites. Who would be interested in holding a Mighty Mite Weekend? Each individual Rock Mite would be allocated a number and maybe there could be a prize for the activator who makes most contacts over a weekend on their Rock Mite(s) and a prize for the chaser who works the most Rock Mites.
Note that if you own more than one Rock Mite they would have different numbers.
SOTAbeams would probably sponsor the prizes if I ask the boss nicely
Pete - Dave at Small Wonder Labs is usually very good at sending out orders quickly. RockMites are sent out airmail and I have had a kit arrive 4 days after ordering!

with very few participants, and only me from Europe!
Could be good if we can drum up some support.
I took part in this too from Paris, however it was in the middle of the night due to US start times and condx were dismal. Might be better with easier timimg and and especially now there are more of these radios in Europe/UK.
I presume you mean the Rockmite, not come across any yet Rick, however there should be a few tucked away somewhere. ATS series I know of one or two builders here and more are becoming keen as they hear about them.
I plan to be out activating using the Rockmite 20 this coming weekend, thought i’d better check it out, will alert closer to the time. I think it has about 300 - 500mW o/p.
As several people have ordered kits I will not make the weekend too soon. Bear in mind that if everyone buys (say) a kit for 14060kHz the frequency will be rather busy!

I have a Rockmite, Richard, and I plan to use it in my first attempt at solar power from a peak during the aforementioned weekend.
