Amateur Radio Featured on WTHI
We were contacted by David Siple of WTHI recently and David interviewed our own Kevin Berlen about the importance of amateur radio today. A special focus on the volunteer service of Skywarn spotters to the NWS during severe weather. Kevin provided an excellent interview and David Siple put together an awesome report on ham radio. Check the WTHI website for the full story. Way to go Kevin!

Winter Field Day 2021
Our group set up operations at Serenity Valley for the Winter Field Day 2021. We set up three operational stations on Saturday morning and operated throughout the 24 hour event. Band conditions were not the best but we were happy with our contact count.

INQP May 4, 2019
Our group participated in the INQP (Indiana QSO Party) on May 4, 2019. We operated at the QTH of Jim (K9SVJ and Linda (K9LKH) appropriately named Serenity Valley.
It was wet with a soft drizzle for most of the day. However, it was dry inside and we had a good time. Band conditions were not the best, but with other QSO parties at the same time we were able to make some contacts.
Our log shows we ended the day with 49 contacts, 62 QSO points, 41 multipliers and a claimed score of 2,542 points. We worked 18 Indiana counties and 11 different states. A pretty good effort on a rainy day!!
Thank you to all who took part and made for a good day.

Update on Clay County AuxCom Station Installation
The hospital continues to be very gracious in providing us with a very nice place for our station. The operating positions have been provided with power, and the coax runs are complete, and the stations are on the air. The packet equipment has been purchased and it is on the air as a KA node N9CCA-7 and BBS as N9CCA-1.
