[VHFcontesting] Sprint YES I think

[Bill Olson <callbill@hotmail.com>]

Hi Steve, Dave, Paul and all, Reporting in from another part of "God's 
Country". So far it looks like I will be on for the Sprint. Starting at 7 and 
running either until I don't hear anyone any more or the NCAA Basketball 
championship game starts (9:30-ish). I'll be on ON4KST chat or can even make 
skeds here.

still only 50 watts but good antenna at good height.

bill, k1DY FN54jq Maine

Hi Guys, Unfortunately  this is the price you guys pay for living in God's
country. Dave, I was up at your killer site many years ago and even
then I wondered why you did not install solar so you could run remote from
you house.  As you know, remote stations
is the in thing for many years and amazing how well that works.

Gl with the snow
