Code Buddies and Friends come to Derryfield park in Manchester NH and make some CW contacts in the North American QSO Party. Should be a great way to make some CW contacts. Bring a comfy chair and hang out with friends. Bring your own radio or you can use mine. I will be setting up a Yaesu DX10 with a straight key and a super antenna. There is plenty of parking, public restrooms and a lunch truck onsite. Looking forward to seeing some of you there.
