BARC participated in Field Day on June 23-24 2001.

Visit N1VUX's BARC Field Day page - it's much fancier than this one!

Field Day Score wrap-up ...

Our claimed scores are ... with 823 QSOs (576 CW + 247 Phone) ...
at Power <= 150W multiplier of 2x ...
2304 pts CW(2x2) + 494 pts Phone (2x1) + 1590 Bonues = 4388 pts total.
This is more than double last year's.

More than half of QSO points were 40CW (397 Qs, 1588 Pts; 57%/QSO, 36%/tot).
More than a third of total points from Bonuses (36%, nearly exactly same as 40CW).

667 Unique Callsigns worked, from 93 sections and at least 5 countries outside US/Canada.

Thanks to Bill McIninch. KA1MOM for these pictures.

Any convenient object becomes an antenna support - in this case for the R7 that went up at 1 AM...
