W4HOD will operate the club station in the CQ RTTY contest this weekend. KA4PKB, KF4OPX and AA4YL will be operating. Our goal is to be on the air most of the weekend and work as many stations as possible. As usual, our operation will be part of the Alabama Contest Group.

KI4KUT, KF4OPX, KA4PKB and AA4YL are operating the XE RTTY contest this weekend. So far we have had a lot of fun and I am headed back to the clubhouse to join KA4PKB in an hour to finish up the contest. A super thank you to member John, KI4KUT for the use of the 80 meter dipole for the XE contest and for the CQ WW contest next weekend. More added about the contest later today.

Thursday usually means a gathering of the Loachapoka Think Tank (or Loachapoka Rat Pack, whichever you think is more fitting) at a local eating establishment in the Auburn-Opelika area. On Thursday, Feb 5, the lucky establishment was the cafeteria at the East Alabama Medical Center. The food was not bad, but the conversation is what made it great. We solved most of the worlds problems, but no one will listen to our solutions.

Yours truly was the only YL present, so I guess you could say I am the Angie Dickinson of the Loachapoka Rat Pack, but unfortunately, I sure as heck don’t look like her.

Present today were KA4NDY, KA4PKB, W4KDS, KG4NYW, KI4TWB, WB4LNM and yours truly, AA4YL. Look out Lee County restaurants, we could be at your place next week.
