      I want to thank everyone that came out and/or helped with the 2024 ARRL Field Day activity this year! We had a large turnout of folks that helped set up on Saturday morning and that also helped take down on Sunday afternoon, plus operated the radios in between! We had five stations on the air making contacts and make contacts we did!

      Our total score last year was 1,676 and this year it is 2,678!

      Our breakdown looks like this:

      I believe the map is more colorful this year:

      I am looking forward to the next Field Day – – – Winter!

            All,

            Especially considering how bad the bands were on that Saturday, those are impressive numbers.  Congratulations to all involved and much thanks for the leadership of Field Day Coordinator Charles Penry (WA5VHU) and Club President Mark Johnson (W5PTX).  In my opinion it is largely due to their efforts that we were so successful in upping our game this year.  More people, more operators and increased numbers.  Bravo!  We too look forward to Winter Field Day.
