Comments:

Once again we had a terrific time putting the hardware at NR4M to work in the
M/M category. We managed to get a few new antennas up, which increased the fun
quotient! It was great to have W4PRO and N4FX from the Tidewater area join us
this year. Once the contest started everything held up well.

Thanks to the Bookouts for allowing us to invade their farm once again!
