[PPRAANet] PPRAA Summer Field Day Report

[W0XLD]

Hello PPRAA/,/

Thanks again to everyone who showed up to our Summer Field Day event at
Mountain View Electric last weekend. I had a fun time, and enjoyed
seeing so many of you on site. Setup and teardown went smoothly due to
having so many of you pitch in. And we had some really good-looking
stations and exhibits that made our Amateur Radio Service look... not
amateur, but professional!

As I prepare to score our logs and submit to ARRL, here is a summary of
contacts made:

Total contacts: 1106
