Latest Propagation from G4ILO
 

Preliminary scores and photos coming soon!

The weather was 'pretty' OK, as long as you don't mind an occasional thunderstorm in the middle of Field Day. Not to worry, the shower only dampened the ground, not our spirits. As usual there were things that went very well (20M and 40M CW). things that went not so well (20M & 160M SSB), a new VHF station that worked out well, a 10/15/75 SSB station that featured the youngest operator and Mike did a nice job with his first effort as captain of the digital station. Add to that a nice QRP effort by K1JAW and wonderful food from NN1Y and, and, and....

We had a nice news article on Channel 3 featuring our PIO Richard, KB1NOX. If you missed it on the Saturday news click here to see it on your PC. Nice coverage for our club and our hobby.

Keep an eye on the Field Day page for the latest scores, pictures and participants. I'll update it regularly as the information comes in. Preliminary estimates are pretty close to what we did last year.

Congratulations to our Field Day raffle winner. Larry, WB1DBY went home with a brand new Yaesu FT2800 mobile radio. I think he will put it away for Jake's new car when he gets his license!

And of course a big 'Thank You' to everyone that showed up, pitched in and helped make yet another memorable Field Day, the HCRA way. Only one year to go until the next one!
