The GRARA Field Day at Calvin College, Grand Rapids Michigan
Another W8DC Great Field Day effort is history.
We got started on time with 3A - CW, Digital and SSB, plus 6 & 2 metre VHF.
One highlight was a visit by Congressman Vern Ehlers, who lives in the
neighborhood and was invited by Ron, K8DMR.
Another visitor was K8QS,
from the faculty at Calvin - who was a CW op, but escaped before we
could put him @ the key of the CW station!
Preliminary score is around 2600, with about 2200 from contacts and 400
bonus points.

What is the GRARA Yahoo Group, you ask? It's a bulletin board specifically made to keep members and
friends up to date on club activities, treasures for sale, questions and comments
on a daily basis. You can keep track of
"what's happening" in any of three ways.
The first way is to go to the yahoo site by clicking the link above. If you join the free group,
you will also be able to select getting an email every time someone posts a message, once a day in a digest
or only if a moderator sends out a special message. (Most members get a single daily digest,
some choose not get any email at all.) You can also return to the site and
search for whatever "tickles your fancy."
