Turney Event a Huge Success!
16 "HAMS" operated from the Turney Depot Saturday Nov. 19th 2011. Over 25 contacts were made over the 3 hour event. CW, SSB were used to make those contacts. 2 100W stations and 1 5W station were setup inside the depot all using temporary antennas strung up around the lot and verticals put in the ground. Everyone had a great time and the generators got a good workout as well. The Mo Valley ARC sponsored the event and the NWMO ARES® Group was invited to participate as well. Look for more of these events in the future to help get the word out about Ham Raio and to help prepare for next years Field Day!
