I am working on getting a few videos done from the Orlando Mini Maker Faire, but this week another event has my attention. This week is the American Radio Relay League‘s School Club Roundup. The School Club Roundup (SCR) brings the focus to elementary, middle, and high schools plus colleges and universities. The event begins on October 21st (yesterday) and runs until Friday. This is my 3rd SCR operating from the University of Florida. Our club station is W4DFU and we are the Gator Amateur Radio Club. Last year we came in 1st place in the College/University category in the fall and we came in 3rd place in the College/University category for the spring.

We are already out in full force. Check out the video above of us operating yesterday. We have over 200 QSOs! We plan on operating every day this week between 1400 and 1900 EDT from our club station, atop the dental school here at UF. Feel free to give us a shout! We would love to get you in the log! Best of 73s and Good DX!
