Field Day – Wow, we did sweat out there, but it was a successful, fun weekend! Tons of equipment, pounds of food, great fellowship and a successful balloon launch. Thanks to everyone that pulled this event together and participated.
Parks on the air (POTA) – Are you interested in POTA? Not sure where to start? Looking for some tips and hints? Well, on Friday, July 18th starting at 9 AM and going to 11 AM, maybe 12 depending on participation, several of us will be set up at Conway Robinson State Forest on Rt. 29 South, right before Heathcote Blvd. This will be a coffee, donut and POTA event, so come on out and observe and/or operate and have a snack!
Hope everyone had a safe and fun 4th of July!
On the morning of July 4th, several of us provided radio support for the Freedom Firecracker 5K at the Freedom Center in Manassas. It was a great run/walk and everyone was very festive! I was home by 9:30 AM and then was able to get on with our holiday celebrations!
Sunday, August 3rd is the Berryville Hamfest at the Clarke County Fairgrounds. Looking forward to attending and supporting our fellow hams, flyer attached!
Please make sure the club has your correct call sign and mailing address on our website in the member’s only section – w4ovh.net
Please send me your news, good, not so good and ham related info! kg4tvm@hotmail.com
Thursday night net at 8 PM is a great way to keep up with current events and hear what everyone is up to with their radios!
