ARLX004 W1AW Field Day message to be transmitted on both US coasts

Correctly copying the W1AW Field Day message is an easy way to earn
bonus points for Field Day 2004, Saturday and Sunday, June 26-27.
For the first time, the Maritime Radio Historical Society's K6KPH
will transmit the Field Day message for the benefit of West Coast
stations on 3581.5, 7047.5, 14047.5 and 21067.5 kHz, CW only.  K6KPH
will transmit the 2004 Field Day message Saturday, June 26, at 1430
UTC, and Sunday, June 27, at 0030 and 1430 UTC.

The K6KPH club station in California is comprised of past operators
of the former commercial shore station KPH, now maintained--and
occasionally operated--as a historical site, with receiving station
in Pt Reyes and transmitters in Bolinas.

The K6KPH transmissions will complement the traditional W1AW Field
Day message transmissions on CW, digital (including PSK31) and
phone.

W1AW will transmit the Field Day bulletin Saturday, June 26 on CW at
0000, 0300, and 1400 UTC; on RTTY (teleprinter) at 0100 UTC; and on
phone at 0145 and 1500 UTC. The Field Day bulletin will air Sunday,
June 27, on CW at 0000 and 1400 UTC; on RTTY (teleprinter) at 0100
UTC, on phone at 0145 and 1500 UTC; and on PSK31 at 1600 UTC.
