Kudos to John W1AN and Mike K1DM for pulling off a hugely successful W1AW/1 operation in Connecticut in the name of the CTRI Contest Group. As a Rhode Island resident, I am proud that Ocean Staters played a significant role in helping our fellow Nutmeggers put in many operating hours at the W1AN station as W1AW/1. Every time I was there, so were K1SD, KI1G, and KB1RFJ from Rhode Island. It was a great warm-up experience for Rhode Island’s first crack at W1AW/1 operation July 23 – 29.
As the coordinator (via CTRI CG) for W1AW/1 Team RI…thanks to W1AN, the on-line scheduling app for RI has already been developed just like Connecticut’s. Scheduling and operating guidelines will now be tailored for Rhode Island and e-mail solicitations to join Team RI will be forthcoming shortly. From the CT experience, operating W1AW/1 is a blast!
Thanks Connecticut for paving the way! 73!
John, W1XX
