12/26/2008 | N6NA The River City Amateur Radio Communciations Society (N6NA) operated 5A/SV for FD 2008 from our usual location in Citrus Heights, California at Madera Park (CM98). We had over 40 people in and out, and the highlight was Boy Scout Troop 224 of Antelope, California participating with us. The 12 Scouts all worked on their "Radio" merit badge, and all succesfully completed the requirements to earn the badge. We had our best score ever, and for the first time a majority of the points were CW versus Phone. We also had a joint club operation as the Western Placer Amateur Radio Club joined us for FD operations and a Potluck dinner.

We look forward to FD 2009 with the WPARC and RCARCS. -- W6AWS
