  • Bonaire for Breakfast

    From ARRL de WD1CKS@VERT/WLARB to QST on Friday, March 21, 2025 19:47:27

    While eating breakfast last Saturday morning at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, ARRL staff member Bob Inderbitzen, NQ1R, was also on the air from Bonaire, remotely working a pileup from a station he visits often on the island. Physically in Newark, New Jersey, for the annual HamSCI Workshop, Bob had his Wi-Fi-connected laptop on the table in front of him, controlling the station in Bonaire as PJ4/NQ1R, and responding to FT8 calls in between bites of breakfast! Increasingly popular remote operating will be the focus of an upcoming special edition of the National Contest Journal.
