I have heard them on 3830 after the last couple of practices. It is hard to
imagine such an active contest club. It really boggles the mind. Makes me
wish I lived within their ridiculous East coast paradigm 175 mile circle.
ARRL should waive that rule for people that don't live in ANY club circle. I
know, no friggin' way. Oh well. They make WVDXC look like - well I won't say
anything. Packet or no, they are staying active. An actual club fired up
over SS. Wow. Go get 'em.
