Comments:

This was a TOTALLY REMOTE effort in that NO OPERATORS were operating from the
shack during the contest.  A technical glitch prevented us from using more than
two operating positions but this could not be corrected while the contest was in
progress.  Thanks to W5ODJ for brilliantly repairing and upgrading our vital
Internet connection.  It worked flawlessly.  Position 1 used a VPN, VNC Viewer,
Mumble audio, Acom Commander and N1MM Logger Classic.  Position 2 was operated
only by John-K3TN who used a K3 connected through a RemoteRig box.  He managed
to work around an audio problem and should solve it once, a new board from
Elecraft for his K3-mini arrives.   Conditions were marginal and our score
would have been substantially higher, had we had the full complement of
operating positions available.  Next time.  It was pretty slick to operate from
many miles away, and hear the pristine audio and watch things happen, all
remotely.  (W3UL & K3TN in MD. W4TMO in NC.  W0YR in VA.  No one in the
K4VV shack.)  Safety measures allow us to meet FCC control requirements.  No
"runaway" problems during the contest.  Many thanks to our hosts,
Jack (K4VV) Hammett and Sharon.  QSOs will be uploaded to ARRL LOTW.  Thanks
for all the Qs and Mults.  We will see you all in the ARRL CW test.  Pushing
the boundaries of Remote Contesting.   73  TeamK4VV
