We've been doing that at our Field Day site for the past 2-3 years now. We've gain 2 new hams through it too...and it's fun! This year was the first year it wasn't only youth that operated. We had afew other adults (parents and some others) that got on and operated. It's a blast!!! http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif It's fun to see the little one's eyes light up when they work a DX, or even the next state over...

"I talked to WHERE?!?!?!"

It's uplifting!

Goodluck!
