W1HQ Now Up and Running -- on the World Wide Web
ARRL Contest Branch Manager Sean Kutzko, KX9X, mentors Development Associate Margie Bourgoin, KB1DCO, on how to operate at W1HQ.
ARRL Membership Manager Katie Breen, W1KRB, has started a blog chronicling the rebirth of the ARRL employee's club station, the Laird Campbell Memorial Station, W1HQ. "I've created this blog as a method of tracking our activities at the ARRL employee's club station," Breen said.
Along with Contest Branch Manager Sean Kutzko, KX9X, she has led the charge to spiff up the station by giving the room a much-needed coat of new paint. Ed Hare, W1RFI, constructed all-new desks and cabinets. Building Manager Greg Kwasowski, W1GJK, installed new carpet and ceiling tiles. Test Engineer Mike Tracy, KC1SX, and Lab Assistant Anthony Nesta, AA1RZ, ran new antenna cables to the roof and rewired the entire room with a new antenna patch panel to accommodate all the new antenna feed lines. Lab Engineer Mike Gruber, W1MG, built a trap vertical.
Read along as Breen, Kutzko and the rest of the W1HQ Crew bring W1HQ back to life and back on the air. You can also check out blogs from past ARRL events, such as Dayton Hamvention® and ARRL Expo, the 2007 ARRL National Convention and Field Day. DXCC Manager Bill Moore, NC1L, also keeps a blog discussing news and notes concerning the DXCC program.
