Georgia QSO Party Part 2

Location: Savannah

I'm back at the Georgia QSO Party effort at the Coastal Amateur Radio Society Club Station at Southside Fire Department Station 1. I'm here with Kevin Bell, KW4B and Steve Jonas, K4SDJ. The contest resumed at 1000 this morning and after having poor results on 20 Meters, Kevin got the station cranked up on 40 Meters with decent results. A recent check of the log shows 96 stations worked since 1400 yesterday.

If you're up on HF, listen for us. We're using the club callsign W4LHS.

Georgia QSO Party and Scanning Demo

This morning, I'm going to meet the Savannah hams for breakfast at Sunny Side Up then go over to Southside Fire Station 1 on White Bluff to help set up the Coastal Amateur Radio Society's club station for a Georgia QSO Party effort. While the club is operating today, I'll also have a computer aided scanning demonstration set up using the laptop, BCD396T, and ARC396 Pro.

Look for tweets throughout the day to update the activity. I'll also be tweeting with the CARS twitter account, which you can see here or at the CARS website here.

If you want to make a contact with us on the ham bands, listen out for W4LHS.
