What: This is more than just a park activation; this is a contest for hams to contact as many Ohio state parks on the air as possible during the contest period. Last year we made around 600 contacts.
We will be running multi operator, multi station again this year.
Anyone is welcome to come out to join us in whatever capacity you would like; we can use help with setup, teardown, operating the stations, or just come out to see us.
Please contact Craig Hockman, N8OH or one of the other contacts listed if you would like to participate in the activation, or just stop out.
