Webmaster's Note: The Ashburn site is a very busy and tight place.
This year our operators were Bill McCourt - WF1L,
Chester Kmak - WA9LAZ and Bruce Lunde - KF4KKZ.


        "It seemed to go quite well for the club's assistance of the Red Cross. I was impressed at how the Net Control operations moved easily between several members of the group during troubles, and the big rush of rider pick-ups that came in the afternoon.

       I enjoyed working at Ashburn during the morning and as SAG-2 driver in the afternoon.

      S
eems like this event was a good test of interoperability and the clubs ability to adjust to equipment problems and changing environment during the event.

         I was able to see my APRS unit on FINDU.com. Was there other APRS running yesterday that I can get the call of to look-up? I would like to investigate how to get that same tracking data down to my machine to plot on more detailed maps too.

       L
ook forward to working with everyone again at the next event. This was my second year of Reston Century and I enjoyed the "work."

Bruce, KF4KKZ, (APRS KF4KKZ-9)"
