Club: Order of Boiled Owls of New York
Comments: Too much going on this weekend…. plus Yankee game..
Stayed off of 20 and 15 as there was wall to wall DX.. Got some more PJ band/modes.
Nice to hear so many OWLS. Worked KS2G, N2YBB, N2FF, W2LK, NA2M and K2QMF, plus lots of locals. Did not do any digital as the JARTS RTTY was active.
