June was a busy, but very good month for the club. Our Hamfest was well attended by both vendors and visitors, and the new location seems to be a hit despite the lack of shade trees. Thanks to all of you who participated to make it a success, for our club and the other Hams out there who were able to enjoy it.
Field Day was also a success thanks to Barb KA8AXY & Bill KC8RUG for offering their home again, and because of the hard work of the members who went out to set up on Friday. Here is a summary of the log data:
Station A
281 total contacts, 281 pts
Top Operator: Bill WD6ADM – 150 contacts, 53% of total
Station B
257 total contacts, 257 pts
Top Operator: Gary KC8BTA 76 contacts , 30% of total
Station C
214 total contacts, 428 pts
Top Operator: Dave Yockey K8CMO 214 contacts, 100% of total
MARC Totals:
538 contacts by phone 72% , 538 points 56%
214 contacts by CW 28%, 428 points 44%
752 contacts, 966 QSO points
Top MARC operator: Dave Yockey K8CMO 28% of all contacts, 44% of all QSO points.
Once again, thanks to everyone who helped set up, operate, and clean up at both Hamfest and Field Day, because these events don’t just happen.
