Like last year, we operated from a hunting lodge in Wythe County near Speedwell. The team consisted of Gary K4VIG (who grew up in Wythe county), Ken K3JWI, Howard WB4ZBI and Ted W4NZ.

We had two stations set up Field Day-style with wire antennas and low power. This year we added an inverted-L for 160M. Conditions were not very good and activity seemed down from last year. Still, a bunch of guys out in the woods playing on the radio has to be fun and it was. Thanks to all the mobiles who called us and thanks everyone for all the QSO’s.
