If it's anything like my club, a bunch of people come out to help set up and tear down, and hang out in between, but when offered a seat at the operating position, say "no thanks". That's why I usually end up operating 16 hours at a 1A station run by a 300 member club - there's no one else to operate. Fine with me - I like operating! But I guess everyone who comes out gets counted. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
