6 years and counting! It has been a fun ride…looking forward to many more years.
Field Day 2013 was held at the QTH of club member Bob, KA4PKB.
Our class was 2E and we ran a CW station and a SSB station. We were going to run RTTY and CW, but we needed the Rigexpert on the CW station.
It was great fun and we had numerous members on site.

Next contest is the German DL-DX RTTY contest on the July 4th weekend. It is usually a great contest.
The 147.30 repeater has returned to the airwaves. Tone 123, the repeater is located on the water tower in Loachapoka, AL.
There is still some antenna work to do, but the repeater is operational now.
Many thanks to club members Frank, N4TKT and Ted, W4DUF for all of the hard work and contributions to this effort. We could not have done it without you.
