2005 ARRL Field Day

08/01/2005 | AD4Z This is my first effort as a Single Operator from the beautiful John Pennekamp Park in Key Largo,Fl. http://www.pennekamppark.com/

Nice company of Racoons, Iguanas and Mosquitoes.

I'm very surprised with the efficiency of my 5w, Extended Zepp and Battery (Still Showing 12v at the end of the operation).

Propagation not too bad, specially 40 meter at nightime. I had a big Pile-Up on 80m at 06:00z but a Thunderstorm made me go QRT and couldn't operate until late in the morning due to the rain. We normally have lots of rain for Field Day in South Florida.

Glad to QSO some of my fellows FCGers and also K4FCG. Big signals from 1B's W8TK and K8MP.

Many Thanks to my family for their support.

See you next year from the same location....

73's
