PCARS (K8BF)

K9EID

There’s a new K9EID – check out QRZ.com

Charlie Hartley is the grandson of Bob Heil and Charlie now holds the famous call K9EID.

Nice to see that his grandson has that call. The information he posted on the website is great! Check it out.

PCARS Contesters:

This coming weekend (Oct. 5-6) we will be participating in the California QSO Party. We will be trying to repeat last year’s performance in which K8BF took first place in the United States, in our category. For that, we received our first plaque for any contest that we’ve played in.

We are looking for operators to put our 4 operating positions on the air. We will be in the Multi-Multi category once again.

We will gather at 10AM on Saturday with the contest starting at Noon (1600 UTC Saturday) and ending at 6PM (2200 UTC) on Sunday.
