    AD5RS, Matt, and AD5RN, John, upgraded earlier in the month to earn hf privileges. Until Field Day, however, neither had ever made an hf contact. W5WRE, Ron, took them under his wing Saturday afternoon at the GOTA station, W5T. Later, from midnight ... Read More

    Last year's Field Day was great, but this year was better. We operated from our new pavilion on our clubhouse grounds. For antennas we used a 40/80 meter dipole, a 3 element tri-band beam on just 20 foot of tower, a multi-band vertical, and a Weather b... Read More

  • My Boatanchor FD station 1962/2004. Other gear was used on 6 meters and 10ghz that was more current.

    Field Day was a nostalgia trip for K6JEY. He set up a National NCX5 and a 2 meter Gonset Communicator IV. Both radios worked fine.He made a number of HF contacts and one 2 meter AM contact. It was a great trip back to 1962, his senior year in High School. Read More
