Congratulations to Chris, KC0YBM, for achieving his Satellite VUCC Award #215!
I had my first contact with Chris back in April 2009. Since that time he has given me 6 more new grids and operated from many others. Chris didn't have a portable setup to take on the road so he purchased an inverter so he could run his 120vac radio in the car! This is a great example of ham ingenuity; find a way to get it done, no matter what roadblocks appear in front of you.
Again, congratulations Chris. I hope to work you in many more new grids in the future!
