Well our annual multi-day event is over!
Thanks to Bruce VA3BDR, Chris VA3CMX, Howard VE3GMG, Drew VE3MAF, and Dan VE3YUI we had all the help we needed for the three days of the festival. Also to Wanda VE3KOJ for the use of her cellphone, and Evelyn VE3MAA who assisted with the setup earlier in the week.
Friday was a typical festival day with minor issues and lots of traffic back and forth between all parties.
I would like to thank everyone who helped out with the Mattawa River Canoe Race.
Once again we had a wonderful time and the event was almost prefect... Just a few radio problem with my gear but as usually we were able to plan b,c,d and e it and all worked out in the end.
Thanks to the following for being there, it was a pleasure to work with you.
