Recap POTA Plaque Event

2023-06-09 by Rev. Fr. Robert Bower W9RWB WRPH745

I am a little late with this post but as they say better late than never. The weekend of June third and fourth was the annual POTA Plaque event. I was able to activate both Potato Creek State Park, K-2265 and Chamberlain Lake State Nature Preserve, K-4189. I had a total of thirty-seven FT8 contacts. While not a lot of contacts I was able to make a QSO with 7N1FRE in grid square QM05, which made my day, as it is my longest contact so far.

Besides making a great contact, Roman, my black lab, and I had a great day at a couple of area parks.
