Would love to do this with you and others but I’ve made plans already and wouldn’t feel comfortable backing out now. 
Next year, sure!

> It's really been a long time since we've done a FD op in the Raleigh area as an official PVRCNC event. Of course, it isn't a contest, and we're a contesting club, but you know what I mean. 😄
> Some of you may remember doing FD at my son Jon's Grey Goose Farm. It's a good location and we can be in AC comfort in the barn/garage if we limit it to a 2A to minimize inter-station QRM. I'm also thinking REALLY SIMPLE setup Saturday morning only to minimize being out in the heat for long. Dipoles or multi-band wires unless someone has a really easy tri-bander set up to bring. 
> No cooking or food logistics. Ice chest with drinks, a few snacks and we do a fast food run or two, or go in to Creedmoor in shifts. Of course, if anyone wants to volunteer to replace "Chef Archie", Jon has a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, but I really want to keep it a simple event for us OF's!
> I've got the VP5 mini-computer and a laptop, two K3's, paddles, headsets, probably everything we need. The generator will need a few gallons of gas but otherwise we just need some phone and cw operators to put us on the map for NC. Call sign TBD. Maybe a short or memorable club call?
> Put in as many hours as you want, whenever you want.
> Just looking for a fun event and an opportunity for us to get together. Won't worry much about bonus points and I doubt we'll have a score to challenge W3AO!
> Any takers? LMK ASAP so I can do the planning on my side.
> If you don't remember, or for newbies, the location is

> Creedmoor
