Update on Clay County AuxCom Station Installation
We are still working on the new amateur radio station in the Clay St. Vincent hospital in Brazil. 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. We are ready to put the station on the air. The new packet equipment has been purchased and we will be getting the packet station on the air over the next few weeks.
