Donald AE6RF and Chris K6DBG will activate Madera county (MADE) for the California QSO Party using this call. We'll be operating mostly CW, with a few minutes of SSB at the 15 and 45 minute marks.

Yes, we originally said SBEN. We were relying on the kindness of our friend Bob Ayers for the site, and Huey the Weather God for his cooperation. Huey didn't cooperate, bringing us the first storm of the season ... and Donald's RV was determined to be unfit for travel at the last minute. So we took plan ... C, I guess, and went to K6DBG's mountain QTH.
