Bob just made contact with Brant Rock on 1.8550! He's thrilled!! Allen has just jumped on to talk to George Stein, W1F who is the grandson Adam Stein who was on Fessenden's original team at Brandt Rock in 1906. Very exciting indeed!
Then Bob went back and got them on AM! He is one happy camper right now!
Things are quieting a bit on the bands....but we've got a few guys still going well!

High noise levels on the bands. Worked W1F and W1AW on 75. Hope to make it a clean sweep in the morning. We were mainly hearing Canada so we joined in the RAC contest. Looking forward to having 3 bands active tomorrow.
