Thanks all. The field day It was my first radio rodeo too! I appreciated all the help from the club members and experienced operators and also made my first HF contacts. My brand new Yaesu 991 made more CW contacts than I will probably ever do in a lifetime (because I was not the operator:). It was a very amazing learning experience all around and I am already looking forward to the next one. 73 KD5NPB Larry Martin

I had a blast! This was my first Field Day, and I really appreciate all the mentoring -- I learned a lot. Made my first contacts on the HF bands, first DX, and first attempts at satellite contacts (just couldn't bust the pile-ups with my little 5-watt HT, but it was thrilling to hear quarter-watt signals from a 1500 mile slant range). 73 to all, --Bill, KG5FQX On Sat, Jun 27, 2015 at 12:00 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: Send BVARC mailing list submissions to [email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [email protected] You can reach the person managing the list at [email protected] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of BVARC digest..."

It seemed your predecessor held the view that disabled people should sit on the sidelines and cheer. On the other hand, it could reasonably be argued that the 200-300 points I could generate in the dead of night were not enough to justify setting up my station for me. Certainly not compared to Al's 1,000 points/hour. Silly me thought Amateur Radio was about having fun. How quaint. Anyway, I wish y'all good luck.
