Chalk up another contest certificate for the Nashua Area Radio Society! We activated Pack Monadnock as part of our SOTA activities last year during the June VHF Contest.

We used a 3 element yagi on a 25 ft mast and a 100W radio for our operation and we had a lot of fun!

We have another SOTA activation coming up on Mt. Kearsarge this weekend on Saturday, June 9th. You can read more about those plans here.

Don’t miss it!
