Hi all,

Look for KC3BSA/p operating a Multi-Multi from SCH this year! The ops 
will be NT3V, WR1B and WA3WSJ. We will be operating from Hawk Mountain 
Scout Reservation in Schuylkill County in a cabin. One station on SSB 
and another station on PSK31 and CW. Maybe the ranger will do so 
operating -hi! Don't plan on winning anything, - just lots of fun! Later 
on we will run the scouts through the stations for Jamboree-on-the-Air!

73,
Ed, WA3WSJ
