Subject: Quick Activation By PAWA Team Member KC1QDZ – Jim, For 1-27-24
Hi Everyone
Quick activation today from K-7722, Scarborough State Beach, RI. Fifteen meters was today, with lots of European P2Ps – thanks, Steffen Mania and Zvone Pivk, you both sounded great. Bands started to get a little noisy for me after 1430 UTC, but plenty of hunters from Poland, France (thanks, Jean Baptiste) England and even Bulgaria. POTA’s increasing popularity in Europe is pretty impressive.
Is there anything more desolate than a Rhode Island beach in January? There is not. I tried to rent an umbrella and chair to work from the beach, but no joy there, had to settle for running from the van. Maybe next time. Thank you, hunters, for keeping the 15m magic alive and 73 from Jim KC1QDZ
