The annual 13 Colonies Special Event celebrating the 13 original US 
colonies is lighting up the bands! K2H, the special call representing 
Mass, has racked up over 14,000 QSOs since July 1!

There is an attractive certificate available for participating and you 
need contact only 1 of the 16 stations (13 colonies plus 3 bonus 
stations) to qualify.  It can be a bit of a challenge for us on the east 
coast to get them all (RI I'm looking at you!) but plenty of folks 
manage it.  We are covering 80-10 (I'm going to try and get 6m on the 
air tomorrow) with CW, SSB and digital modes (Mostly FT8).  Check with 
your spotting network to find us (http://dxsummit.fi/#/  for example).

You can get more details on the event web page; http://13colonies.us/

73 and Happy 4th!
