Cc: Subscribed ARRL Members: Subject: Field Day Message to SM Via Packet Hi, All, Hope the anticipation for Field Day is rising high amongst all of you. I know that we're looking forward to it, and have an ambitious itinerary planned out to visit 10 to 12 sites, time and weather permitting. (Let's hope this nice weather lasts through the weekend.)Unfortunately, we can't visit with all of you who so kindly issued an invitation (though we appreciated the temptations you offered of those goodies like steak, and blackened fish, and some of the "best chicken in the southeast"....)We're gonna try to hit some new spots this year, so as much as we wanted to, we couldn't do that and still make it to all of the sites we visited last year, too.... Anyhow, since this year is the first year that we'll be attempting to handle Field Day messages via packet, SCOTT HARTLAGE, KF4PWI, thought it might be a good idea to do a little "practice" to check out the system. And he was kind enough to share the log of that practice session to benefit all of you who may be thinking about sending your message via packet this year. Give it a try!! And many thanks to Scott and all of the rest of the Gwinnett ARES folks who've volunteered their expertise to accept these messages.

It would be particularly cool if all of you Class F operators sent a packet message. Which reminds me: If your group is running a Class F operation this year, please let our esteemed SEC MIKE BOATRIGHT, KO4WX, know about it. (ko4wx@...) And I think both he and I would love to hear how your Class F operation went, after all is said and done. An "after action report" if you will... something that we can then send to HQ to give them our GA operators' opinion on the new class. Y'all take care. And have a fantastic Field Day! 73, Susan -------------------------------------------------------------------- ARRL Georgia Section Section Manager: Susan K.
