Just wanted to thank everyone who participated in Field Day last weekend! It was sunny and hot, loading trucks, setting up and breaking down, but we all persevered!
Special thanks to all the operators, both veterans and some new (and young!), operators who did a great job. We had a couple of technical difficulties with the phone station in the beginning, but great minds figured it out. Also thanks to Hunter for donating his laptop for the log at the phone station.
And we can't forget about Mike and his culinary talents with providing our great meals! Thanks to all those who brought their delicious side dishes, as well as "Kill-A-Mouse" electric for our generator power. Thanks, everyone!
We made several contacts on the GOTA Station sunday morning, with some people who came by to check out ham radio. Great PR!
We had a special visit from State Rep Dave Vieria (who is also a ham!) and he checked out our trailer and spent about an hour visiting.
I haven't seen the final results yet, but rough figures said we did the same or even better that last year.
Thanks again everyone, stay cool and have a safe 4th!
