2018 ARRL January VHF Contest

01/30/2018 | K0BAK/R

Third year operating a very short-distance 11-band minivan rover in January. Drove to fixed and rover stations having as many matching bands as possible in the Philly area (FN20, FN10, FM19, FM29). Highly cooperative weather was the big news this year -- no snow, rain, icy roads, or bitter cold when (de-)installing the radio equipment. For the first time I was able to make every microwave contact I should have made; previous two years there were always bands that didn't work one place or another. Thanks to all the helpful members of the Packrats VHF club who make this rove possible.
