[WVARC] WVARC Digest, Vol 74, Issue 1

Sat Jun 24 21:03:02 GMT 2023

WOW! Just saw Marty in an ARRL Field Day advert!  Then this shows up!
Things tend to come full circle too. My first Field Day was with WVARC on
top of My Lucens...I helped Liegh set up a tower for the first time and
also got the worst sun burn of life.

73 to all

Steve Wilson KA6S operating KU6S 3a eb.  And yes I get mess up the club
call all the time.
