Here's what Bob has to report:

"Getting ready to let the overnight crew get some sleep. Looks like a good day for outdoor work with a high of 50 but we'll stay inside and hope to see more on the air. Looking forward to an Eagles victory in Football, Fireworks over the Delaware River on NYE and the Mummers Parade on NYD (that may be rained out). Did I say a soft pretzel and a Philly cheese steak as well!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

73sBob, WA3PZO"

Thanks for the birthday wishes Bob!!!! kb

Sun just starting

I have to admit it - I'm not usually awake for the sunrise these days. Today might just have changed my mind about that practice. It is a brisk, clear and beautiful New England morning here! Our antennas are beautiful!!! I hope you enjoy these pictures!!!

Rob W1AVK just wrote in trying to find out where Duncan will be today! We here have heard from a few folks over the pond that they've had LOTS of wind over there and conditions aren't so great. So - if anyone from GB1FVT reads this - write to me at w1krb@arrl.org with your Frequency!!!
