anyone planning on submitting a log? Got this rule change today.

*For Field Day 2020 only, Class D stations may work all other Field Day
stations, including other Class D stations, for points. *

Field Day rule 4.6 <http://www.arrl.org/field-day-rules#classd> defines
Class D stations as "Home stations," including stations operating from
permanent or licensed station locations using commercial power. Class D
stations ordinarily may only count contacts made with Class A, B, C, E, and
F Field Day stations, but the temporary rule waiver for 2020 allows Class D
stations to count contacts with other Class D stations for QSO credit.

I'd be glad to come operate and contribute to the log. Also glad to work
some from home and contribute my log to the club effort.

This mentions the club effort:

*In addition, for 2020 only, an aggregate club score will be published,
which will be the sum of all individual entries indicating a specific club
(similar to the aggregate score totals used in ARRL affiliated club
competitions).*

Ordinarily, club names are only published in the results for Class A and
Class F entries, but the temporary rule waiver for 2020 allows participants
from any Class <http://www.arrl.org/field-day-rules#class> to optionally
include a single club name with their submitted results following Field Day.

For example, if Podunk Hollow Radio Club members Becky, W1BXY, and Hiram,
W1AW, both participate in 2020 Field Day -- Hiram from his Class D home
station, and Becky from her Class C mobile station -- both can include the
radio club's name when reporting their individual results. The published
results listing will include individual scores for Hiram and Becky, plus a
combined score for all entries identified as Podunk Hollow Radio Club.


Back in February I realized I hadn't seen a lot of the old guys I was used
to seeing at the frostfest. I mentioned it to my girlfriend. She politely
informed me that I was now the old guy.

Good to be back on the mailing list
