MRC 2008 November 29th

The MRC, or Mountain Radio Challenge,
started around 1980. The idea was to see what distance could be achieved, on 27MHz, using ground wave. Anyone could talk skip interstate or overseas, but to talk long distance without skip was a challenge. Originating from CBers in the North Eastern Suburbs of Melbourne, they would find mountains to camp on for the night, and see what distances that could be achieved.
