With that said tonight we will have our monthly HF contest tonight. The last two months there were no contacts made and a fairly sparse group. Let’s see how we do tonight.


Do you APRS? I do. We now have a full time iGate and Digipeater right here in our valley. APRS provides some fun, helpful & possible lifesaving capabilities. Give it a try and reach out to either myself or KO6APL with any questions you may have.

And remember we’ll be having a APRS workshop after testing in September.
