2003 ARRL Field Day
Radio Club of Newfoundland (VO1MRC) held a joint operation in Carbonear
the home town of Maurice, VO1FG, who recently becane a silent
key. The clubs decided to collaborate to hold a memorial
Field Day in memory of Maurice, whose station was 'on top of the
saddle'.
Food (Moose steaks, stew, fish'n'brewis, beans and pork chops)
were served up by the skilled radio amateur chefs at the site
and many 807's were enjoyed, along with some excellent
conversation about radio and Maurice and of course some fine
operating at the 4A station in an old house with no electricity
or running water!
In the picture are members from both groups at the FD site.
