The 2024 Northeast HamXposition’s station, W1XPO, was active on the air in several scenarios during the 2024 convention weekend. In addition to the official Get On The Air (“GOTA”) event at the hotel, several Parks On The Air activations in Connecticut were conducted. W1XPO was also QRV from the hotel as a remote digital contest station in the WW Digi DX Contest.
According to Providence Radio Association‘s Vic Farmer, NE1Y: “[We ran] remote from W1XPO/1 to W1OP HQ, in the Multi-Operator Single-Transmitter Low-Power category and finished #1 in the United States 1st Call Area, #3 North America, and #9 in the World.”
Kudos again to the PRA gang for showcasing Amateur Radio at the convention!
