Thanks to Bob WB4APR for the equipment loans and friends on the 147.850 Havre De Grace and 146.720 Newark repeaters for allowing us to use them.

Gear used were a Garmin GPS 38, Win95SSTV, a Kenwood VC-H1, a Kenwood TH-D7A, 2 Kenwood TM-251's, a Kenwood TS-790, an MFJ 1278 DSP, and a variety of laptop and desk computers. Always carry extra AA batteries!
