    The Fluvanna County ARES group decided to try a small informal Field Day this year hosted by WO4R on the family farm in Palmyra, Va. Since this was a private site, no attempt was made to inform the public. However, two public officials did attend so ... Read More

    For the third year in a row, family commitments kept me from the LARC (W2SO) Field Day activities, but that didn't stop me! 2 Hours Sunday afternoon, 2 6M hamsticks, 2 pieces of coax, 10FT of PVC, some cable ties, pre-charged battery-in-a-box, and a c... Read More

  • The PSK-31 station running solar power inside the Campgaw Ski Lodge in Mahwah,NJ. The station consisted of a Yaseu FT-897 and a HP laptop running Digipan 2.0

    Once again I operated with the 10-70 Repeater Association from inside the Campgaw Ski Lodge in lovely Mahwah in Northern New Jersey. The past three years running I have been doing PSK-31, but this time with my new Yaseu FT-897. Believe me it made all ... Read More

    FD 2008 was my second entry that I did solo. I operated 1E/WNY, all from my 10 meter mobile rig out on the patio. The weather, typical of this year, was atrocious, but thankfully the excellent Sporadic E propagation on 10 meters made up for it.

    Man... Read More

    Field Day on the last weekend in June seems to be an artifact of The League's geographical location and history. Unfortunately, the weekend is often miserably hot for other parts of the country. Along with the heat of a southern summer comes the need t... Read More

  • This "roof scraper" is the tower height that honest people were allowed in Brewster until the Building Inspector was made to understand PRB-1 thanks to several years of pestering.

    Our FD idea kind of fell apart here this year after my father became an SK before my eyes suddenly on 31 May. On the 23rd of June I got hit in the back at a stop light. So, we just operated from home as 1D and put in a few hours for 33 QSO's on 40 CW a... Read More

    I haven't operated in Field Day since 1975 and truly wasn't planning on getting involved this year. Little did I know that streak was going to end.

    After finishing up a referee assignment (sounds familiar to other soapboxes, huh?) and getting a chance... Read More
