If you missed the Winter Field Day last weekend at Ellicott you really
missed something special. We had a great turnout. Lots of folks came out,
Curtis KEØKNG, Raleigh N4HYF, Mike WV7T, Jim KDØKQL, Jim K3ILC, Virgil NØXRS,
Ed KCØTBE, John NGØI, and Rich ACØNP. If I missed someone please forgive me.
Wow the bands were open like a dream during the day, and at night with the
CQWW 160m cw contest. At night 160m sounded like 20m on the best day.
Nearly noiseless, stations everywhere. We now have a microwave and we enjoyed
warm chili the Raleigh brought. I forgot to bring in the popcorn, oops! The
2 heaters brought the inside temp up to 70 degrees NICE! Both for the new
rigs were run through their paces and worked super! The weather could not
have been better. Huge numbers of contacts were made!
There is a 160m SSB contest the end of February and we will be out there
again. Come out and join us!!!
