They actually got the signal to go 55.1 miles.

Andy Meng was a member of Computer Society when I was Vice President.  The kid is rediculously smart, to say the least.  The other three were in other grades.  

They will most likely get a record for this, because they were able to get a signal WITHOUT amps of any kind.

I would assume all four of them went to X, and were all in the Radio Club.  But the only one I know personally was Andy Meng, the other three were not even in my grade.
