Well after not being able to participate in Field Day the 3 previous years. It was nice to finally get to do so. Used a CrankIR from SteppIR along with a Yaesu FT-891 powered by a Bioenno 20ah battery. For me 20m worked the best, but I wasn't able to reach the east coast.
Yes. It is always the last full weekend in June. It is the most popular operating event in the USA. There is also a Winter Field Day, but it is not nearly so popular, because the weather is not as comfortable in most parts of the USA.
Hello AG6QR. Thankyou for the explanation. It looks like an interesting event. I wish you success. I want to participate. 73 JF1IRQ
