With a valiant effort on the part of a few of our members, we were  
able to operate for approximately 5 hours on Friday, the final day of  
the contest.  While not spectacular, for the time put-in, I'd say we  
made a good showing for it.

Special thanks go out to:

Ken, N5KUK		- for making sure we had an antenna with which to cook  
the atmosphere
WX5NHC		- for allowing us the use of their IC-7000, very nice rig,  
indeed
Robin, KC0BSC	- for getting permission to use the NWC Obs deck and  
operating during the contest
Jarrod, KD5RAK	- for operating during the contest
Nate, AE5IG		- for operating during the contest
Aaron, WX5AB	- for operating during the contest and use of the  
logging computer

A reminder to club members that the National Weather Festival will be  
held from 9am - 1pm at the NWC on November 8th.  We will have a table  
set up with radios to give a public demonstration of our great  
hobby.  Please plan on attending if you have the time to do so.
