Field Day 2023 Report

Charles, Mark, and Jerry wish to thank all who participated in the 2023 Field Day event.

We had a good turnout for setup and teardown. Considering when the folks that made the mad cow were thinking that strong young firefighters would be dealing with it, us old guys did pretty good.

We had the tower at its maximum height of 106 feet and it was wonderful to have a dipole up that high.

Never had problems making contacts.

Tom Lappin, WØUY, added 650 points to the club aggregate score when he submitted his FD info to ARRL. He had 152 CW contacts and 50 points for online form submission.
