INQP 2020 - May 2, 2020

We plan to take part in the Indiana QSO Party (INQP) in May. This year the INQP will be on Saturday May 2nd. Check back for details on our plans.
​
​                 ​​ Winter Field Day 2020

​Our group set up operations at the Cory VFD Community Center for the Winter Field Day 2020. 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. John (KD9IKN) made arrangements for the food and it was absolutely fabulous. We are looking forward to the INQP in May.

                        ​​ 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.

The operating positions have been provided with power, and the coax runs are complete, and the stations are on the air.
