The 100 Watts and a Wire TUNE UP happens on June 12-14! ( http://100wattsandawire.com/activities )

Since Covid19 has forced a large percentage of U.S. citizens to limit social gatherings, we are encouraging participants to assemble a small team of operators from various locations.

For instance, K0STH’s team will have operators from Missouri, Washington State, Maine and Illinois.

Stations will set up portable antennas and will be limited to 100 watts of power. At the end of the activity, teams will submit their totals and be entered into the random drawing for prizes.

Winner will take it all!
