The Ham Radio Field Day event is underway!
The students of the Villanova University Amateur Radio Club are operating W3YP remotely over the internet.
So far, we have made some local 2m FM contacts and some satellite contacts π°οΈ(FO-29). The upcoming RS-44 pass should be promising.
Overnight we may do some digital FT8 contacts on 20m band.
Wish us luck! π
