Stoned Monkey VHF ARC
The Stoned Monkeys are a group of VHF contesters based in northeastern Illinois on the borders of Lake and McHenry counties.
The name of the club comes from an incident during the June 2000 VHF QSO Party where one of the founding members unwittingly infected several computers used for logging with the Stoned Monkey computer virus. That's right folks - nine years later and he still hasn't lived that one down!
The club was last active during the 2009 ARRL January VHF Sweepstakes and plans to be out in force during the 2009 ARRL June VHF QSO Party. We'll be active on 50 MHz to 1.2 GHz, plus 10 GHz and laser.
