I plan to do my usual lunch / ops / bike (but not FARS). --David KM6RI

Some months ago, there was discussion about coolers.?? That got me to replace my vintage Igloo and can now report on my field tests.
I bought the Yeti 45 liter, hard-sided cooler.? The size has proven good for my uses.
Online there were several other brands, all less expensive.? The key factors behind my decision were:
??? ? I couldn’t find any local stores where I could actually see the other brands.
??? ? There were some similar sized coolers, but they didn’t have wheels and weighed more. Fully loaded with food and ice, these differences are important.
??? ? REI had a membership discount on a full priced item.
Memorial Day weekend, I spent 4 days camping and ate well.
I just returned from 6 days and nights in the Sierras.? The first 2 nights, I had to plan ahead to defrost what I was going to cook for dinner.?? The last evening, the beer was still cold.?? The last morning, while preparing my breakfast burrito, there was still some ice at the bottom of the mostly empty cooler.

Oddly, 160m was good enough to print n5j much of the night, however no joy

Re: WingNut Museum, Berkeley
Dave,
I have always appreciated your own wingnuttiness.? A wingnut probably attaches the propeller to your hat.? Hope to see you in San Ramon.
