Operating Events

Here's a look at some of the people who have operated from here, and some of what goes on.


Contesting

A typical scene during the North American QSO Party, sponsored by the NCJ. If this looks like fun, leave email and get on the list of operators. All are welcome but RARS members get preference if we have too many operators.


KE4DRJ, WD4RDT

On the right is Wilbur, WD4RDT. Wilbur is a regular whenever training of any sort is going on. He is one of three primary control ops when Technicians operate in the various contests. Here, Joey operates "run" in the afternoon hours of the November Sweepstakes under the watchful eye of Wilbur.


KF4RTX, KE4DRJ

And Tim, KF4RTX operates under the watchful eye of Joey.


KD4ACW

Cyndi, KD4ACW works the 9:00p to midnight shift. Have you ever seen such concentration?


KD4ISC

And Dick, KD4ISC is quite capable of handling the graveyard shift unassisted. He's really quite good... the only operator here to never bust a call.


Rig repairs

Sometimes things give out in the middle of the fun. This situation calls for quick troubleshooting and repair.


AD4ZE, KN4AQ

Warren, AD4ZE is another of the primary control operators. Sometimes, he even gets to operate a little himself. Notice Warren is not distracted by the KN4AQ two meter operation going on right next to him.


KF4JKQ

Thomas, KF4JKQ is the Skywarn EC. Here, he calls a Skywarn net during a batchlor party. There were about 20 hams in the house at this time, but notice that Thomas is the only one in the shack. Hmm... where is everybody else?


Scouts

It's not all about contesting. Here, a scout troop visits before the annual Field Day event. This was in preparation for assisting the W4DW operation.
