Many thanks again to Mark O’Brien (K2AX), his wife Donna, and his family for their hospitality and patience hosting this all-FRC group at their home. This was an all-around team effort. We operated around-the-clock for all 48 hours. There is no single hour in the log where we made zero contacts, and only one hour where one of the stations was “dark” in the middle of the second night. While we found it difficult to generate runs at certain times, there were others where things really took off. At some point, each one of us would shout out: “I just got !” so everyone got some excitement working unusual and difficult DX. We had zero equipment failures and no serious problems. However, one of the Windows 7 computers insisted on installing updates and rebooting itself, luckily at a slow point anyway and it only took a couple minutes. This more than doubles the K2AX CQ WW SSB score from last month. We didn’t set any records with this but hopefully it helps the overall club total. To all of the K2AX/FRC team, thank you for the hard work, support and cooperation. Go FRC! Comment NE2D
