I¡¯ve been dealing with sciatica for the last few months

treatments but so far it¡¯s still quite painful at times. I won¡¯t
be able to due some of the heavy lifting or beam assembly.

Jim,
I will be there
for setup and takedown.
I can bring a
cooler and 2 bags of ice.
I assume we are
fine with antennas?

Jim, I have the ?Icom 7600 if you

Hi all,
Just a reminder that Field Day is this
weekend, June 22 and 23.
Here is a rundown of events.
We are setting up our station at the
Fire Training Center in
Ballston Spa, the same place
that we hold our meetings, and
the same place we set up for
the last several years.
We will begin setup on Friday afternoon
at 2 PM.? We will be starting
the preliminary antenna
layout, and preliminary
computer network setup at that
time.? We will most likely be
working until 5 or 6.? On
Saturday we will be assembling
at 9 AM to complete setup and
be ready to start operation at
2 PM.
We anticipate running a 3A station.?
That means 3 stations
operating simultaneously on
emergency power.? We also
would like to set up a
dedicated 6 Meter station, and
also have a Get on the Air
station for new and
inexperienced hams.? This
event runs from 2 PM on
Saturday afternoon until 2 PM
Sunday.
At 2 PM Sunday, we will tear it all
down.? That is usually the
quickest part of the event,
and we will be done by about 5
PM.
Here is what we need:
-
Setup and teardown crew.?
-
Someone to copy the ARRL FD
bulletin on Friday night or
Saturday morning.
-
We might need an HF station,
we anticipate using the
club¡¯s 2 ICOM mobiles, and
one other station has been
volunteered.? If you want to
bring your own transceiver
to operate because you feel
more comfortable using
equipment you know, that
would be great.? If you can
leave it for others to use
overnight that would be
super.
-
Operators.? This is a 24
hour event, but no one
should expect to operate
that long.? If you can spare
an hour or two, that would
be great.? We especially
would like to get newer and
less experienced hams to
join in and have fun.? We
never expect to win our
category, but we do expect
to enjoy ourselves.? Also,
if you are unsure about
operating, but just want to
get the feel of the event,
come anyhow.? Everyone is
invited.
-
We will have water and soda
to keep ourselves hydrated.?
The weather forecast is for
hot and humid conditions.?
We need someone to donate
the use of an ice cooler and
some ice to keep the drinks
cold.?
The club will be supplying
food at the appropriate
time.
If you can come and help out with
manpower or equipment, please
let me know,
KG2H@...? If you
just want to schedule an hour
or 2 or even more, please let
me know when you can come.? If
you don¡¯t let me know because
you don¡¯t know your schedule,
just come when you can.? We
are not RSVP-ing operating
time.
I hope to see many of you there.
Jim KG2H
