Hey
gang!
?
We've got several
things in the mill for Field Day that require some information on who will be
at the site when.? We want to put together a schedule for operators
(based on requests from last year), but we also need to find out: (1)?if
we will have the critical mass we need for putting up towers on Friday
evening/Saturday morning and taking towers down on Sunday; (2) How many we
will have on-site from about 12:00-2:00pm Saturday for the
(weather-permitting) first ever N4N kick-off barbecue; (3) How many we will
have for dinner Saturday and lunch Sunday.?
?
So, if you could,
please let me know as soon as you can when you plan to be at the site.?
Bring along a friend, the XYL, or the kids if you'd like (let us know so we'll
have food).? Any extra help we can get for Friday evening or Sunday
afternoon would really be great!
?
To give you an
idea of what's going on here's a basic schedule:
?
9:00am
Thursday:? Arrive at site and begin setup of RV, tents, tables/chairs,
computer network, generators and AC distribution, and basically everything but
stations and antennas (KE4UW, KN6RO, and KT4XN so far)
?
Thursday
evening:? Relax and enjoy a cool one
?
Friday
morning:????? Continue setup of camp as needed, test
computer network, etc
?
Friday
2:00pm:???????Begin assembly of antennas
and towers, hang wire antennas, setup?stations, test rig/computer
interfaces, etc.
?
Friday
evening:???????Raise as many towers as
possible (need at least 8 people to do this safely), copy ARRL bulletin,
dinner at the catfish restaurant in Hiram.
?
Saturday
morning:?? Complete any station setup or tower erection, test for
interference among stations (if not done Friday), troubleshoot any
problems
?
Saturday
noon:?????? Picnic lunch (weather permitting),
brief indoctrination for operators, primer on Writelog.
?
Saturday
2:00pm:?? Field Day operation begins!
?
Saturday
evening:?? Pizza dinner (delivery, if possible)
?
Sunday 2:00
pm:??? Field Day operation ceases.? Barbecue lunch and
gathering of good ideas?for next year.
?
Sunday 2:30
pm:??? Dissambly of antennas and towers, packing and
cleanup
?
?
So, choose your
activities, arrange the hall passes, and please let me know as soon as
possible when you plan to be there.? If you have preference for
bands/modes you do or don't want to operate, let me know that and we'll
accommodate those as well.
?
Think Field
Day!?
