Most of the weekend the ships were on 20, conditions weren't the greatest, we did get a few DX. The entire BVARC op had around 200 Q's though we haven't compiled the various logs yet. The 2m net, 2pm-3pm, on the Tidelands ARC repeater, on Saturday netted over a dozen takers. The Elissa and the Texas were busy as well. Sunday was pretty much rained out.
Once the logs are compiled, a more accurate report will follow. 73 Mark K5MGJ > On Jun 4, 2017, at 9:25 PM, Gayle Dotts via BVARC <[email protected]> wrote: > > Have been looking forward to Museum Ships weekend for several years now, each > year a disappointment for me...but this year would be better!!!
