That's great tom. We had a blast too even though I didn't make 300
contacts hi. First time used n3fjb software. Am trying to learn more about
it.

Lloyd:
I have a question which has interested me for years.
How in the world can W3AO run 25 alpha? We worked them a number of times as
usual this Field Day, and I am amazed at what they seem able to do.
Regarding our club's Field Day operation, we made a total of 730 contacts.
I made 323 CW contacts with my 20-meter set-up, and the rest were phone
contacts spread throughout the bands. We ran a 3A operation, and had an
absolute blast.
I am still in recovery mode this evening, but am already thinking about next
year's Field Day, and what improvements we can make to have even better
results.

I won't be out at an FD station. Potomac Valley Radio Club will be running
W3AO with 26 transmitters from Howard County, Maryland. I won't attempt to
run a 40-meter roundtable today, but plan to be on 20 tomorrow on 14258 at
2000Z, if anyone cares to drop in. I hope to work at least some of you on
Field Day with my 1D fixed station.
