[K3PZN-List] CCARC Field Day 2002: What a BLAST!!!

Mon, 24 Jun 2002 14:22:31 +0000

You guys had a good signal - kept hearing you every time
I got on the radio. We had problems here in FL, mainly
the never ending thunder storm (the good news is that it
kept the mosquitos away).

73,

Andy

> Dear CCARC Field Day Partipants;
> 
> Believe it or not - this is the FIRST field day I've
> participated in from start to finish, and it was
> AWESOME!  I really enjoyed every minute of it.  Thank
> you to all the club members and guests (i.e. Frederick
> club - Tower) for helping me have a great time while
> putting forth a good effort.
> 
> I'd particularly like to extend two major complements
> for an outstanding job:
> 
> 1.  Clint - W3ARS.  What a job as Field Day President.
>   Three cheers for you, old man!  You run a top notch
> show.  And providing your beam at the last minute
> really helped give me that 1 - 2 S-unit advantage over
> my dipole.  Someday, I'll find all those little
> washers and screws for your A4...
> 
> Thanks for the generator repair/duty as well.   Next
> year, the only question will be...how many MORE
> transmitters will we run?
> 
> 2.  Keith - KB3HHK.  As some of you might remember - I
> also volunteered for "food" duty - but I never did one
> single thing related to cooking during the entire
> weekend.  I thought the meals were outstanding, the
> service was wonderful, and I'm sure the entire crew
> will join me in applauding Keith for a job well done.
> You did such a great job, Keith, that we want you back
> again next year.
> 
> Of course there are many, many people, some in the
> spotlight, and some behind the scenes that make it
> possible for such a great event to continue, and I
> appreciate those of you that helped me pack, unpack
> and operate my 20 meter SSB station this year.
> 
> For those interested, 20 SSB finished up with the
> following statistics:
> 
> 1.  539 Unique (Non-Duplicate) QSOs
> 2.  6 DX Stations
> 3.  75 Sections
> 
> We also had the pleasure of having a reporter from the
> Carroll County times sit down and "run" stations for
> several minutes.
> 
> The Field Day new operator of the year for 20 SSB goes
> to a very special 10 year old YL named Jamie.  Within
> minutes, she was running stations like a champ.  Keep
> up the good work, Jamie - you can contest at my
> station any time!
> 
> I hope that most of you had half as much fun as I did
> at field day...I can hardly wait for next year's
> event.
