Things are finally getting together here at KB1H. Though not a competitive M/M we have the capability to run 3 stations so we opted for the M/M class and a chance to get more points for the YCCC’s attempt to dethrone FRC.

We have never had this much aluminum in the air. Lots of options which made good band conditions even better. Having sustained ALLBAND rates of over 250+ and short term rates of 450+ is exciting with just three transmitters running.

The 80M Four-Square works great. The new 10M system seems to have us poised for whatever happens on this band in the future. The options that become available when you have all the antennas in the air make operating fun. The flexibilty given with the WX0B Stack Boxes whether used as a phasing unit or just an antenna switch keeps things hopping.

I want to thank all the crew that has helped this summer to put up a new tower plus 8 additional antennas. AA1CE, K1EBY, N1BU, KB1DFB, N1XS, K1JCL
