Happy that you enjoyed it. My experience was a bit different since I had the overnight shift, but I second your action items.

Great location, great teamwork and great people. Most importantly, the bands opened up on Sunday for a great ending. 3,000 QSOs considering that we had high noise on 40 and 80 meters and no propagation on 15 and 10 on Saturday, is a great score. So, thank you to ALL the organizers and the clubs for making this very successful. Here are a couple of suggestions to make it even better for next year. 1. Trace the noise generator prior to FD so we can reduce it. S9 noise on 80 meters made it almost useless. We could not hear most of the signals. 2. Locate the antennas so as to minimize interference between SSB, CW and Digital modes antennas. -----Original Message----- From: Curt Fletcher [mailto:dcurtfletc...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, June 25, 2018 7:20 AM To: Nizar Mullani; Allen R. Brier Subject: FD thoughts A few random thoughts on FD. For a few years I thought TDXS should break away and do our own FD, I’m wrong. There isn’t enough TDXS members participating to put up a tent, throw a rock over a tree with a long wire on the end. The BVARC and Katy guys really did a great job with just about everything hardware related. The current arrangement is perfect for all concerned, Glen and Allen organizing computers and radios, BVARC guys towers and antennas, Katy guys organizing, labor and sweat. New location is far superior to the fire stations. Obviously figuring out the noise issue prior to FD would be nice.
