[NCC] 160 Meters in SS?

[WW3S]

I should be on as KP2/WW3S, remote using Herb KV4FZ station....I THINK I have the bugs worked out, and there were several !!! If all the naysayers about remote operation being “easy way out” would try it once, I think they would appreciate it more, I know I sure do.....hats off to Hal W1NN for sticking with it so long !!!

73 , hope to cu this weekend.....
