Wonderful evening for our August club meeting.  We had some new visitors and a few of them applied for membership.  After we got through the club business, we started off with an HF contact with our club president Jeremy W6TKD who was traveling through Wyoming.  We used Bob's W1RH station remotely to make a contact with W6TKD on 20m phone.   Bob also gave us an update on the 2m voting receiver work.20240820_191240.jpg 20240820_190432.jpg
