Quick comments for ARMAD, We had 45 HF contacts all made by AI4PJ, Karl using the Drake State Technical College Call sign N4DTC. He was pretty dog gone good. We tried to take his seat so he could get some rest but no contacts were made until Mr. big (AKA) AI4PJ came back. Most of the contacts were made out of Florida and Texas; we had a few from New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Ohio, Virginia and yes also from Canada. I was only able to make two contacts using the famous Asterisk Bridge Link (ABL) gateway to echolink. The VFW post there in Wichita, KS and the state of Iowa. Mark (W4FMX) was the advisor; advise all to keep the contacts rolling. He didn’t let any of us take a brake and making sure all links and repeater systems were up for the task. We had Lee (KI4BZY) the senior amateur radio operator on site, a retired Korean war army veteran cheering us all on and giving the Air force retirees a run for their money. hi hi. We also had for the first time a special helper, Mr. Roosevelt Thurman who volunteered to help us setup. Being a retired Army soldier this was like taking candy from a baby. He jumped right in and helped us make our on air time operations a success. The Madison/Huntsville ARMAD team had a great time setting up, operating and breaking down. Next year we will be ready to go at it again. 73, Will / W4WWM
