[SMCARA] 2022 ARRL Field Day with SMCARA (K3HKI)

[Tom Clarke]

Hi Jon, et al,

Sounds like you guys are set for some fun! The new venue sounds terrific.

Don't forget six meters! It is a "free" station, in that it does not count
as one of your 2 stations permitted by 2A.

Rule # 1 - Have Fun!

73 Tom W4OKW
operating as WA4USN 2A SC this year.
