Kevin said: >Good Afternoon, >I took Wayne's advice and had a little fun during Field Day. I did want >to work with other folks for a change but ... Kevin, The same thing happened here. We had a credible threat of serious thunderstorms for the whole period, which did not develop at all. I don't blame the folks for being careful, but it would have been nice to have a back-up plan. So I wound up operating 1D from my basement. I made about 40 to 50 Q's on 80, 40 and 15. At least we gave some other hardy souls someone to talk to during the fray. I'm sure they appreciated our contacts. >Around here you have to be careful if you mention the mode. >Too many folks are adamantly opposed to its use or even >its existence. I had no idea of the depth of feeling until I mentioned >how much fun I had running CW. I was never again welcome at that club! Complete dolts, Kevin. Even if none of them cared for CW, why would they act like that? I'll bet if you got to know them, you'd discover a number of even more disturbing character traits. You don't need to be hanging with a crowd like that. Next year, I'll have my own "back-up plan".
