Re: [Elecraft] Winter Field Day this weekend
Wayne's message about winter field day reminds me of my first winter field day, in southern California. It was about 78 degrees in the park with a large group. I got to play with my first Elecraft rig, a K3. I was sold. I immediately sold my marginal FTdx1200 and got a K3, KPA500, KAT500 and P3. __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] Winter Field Day this weekend -- brief introduction
You missed some fun last year, the low was ~0F at K9CU's site in Urbana. During setup it was in the upper teens with a 10 mph wind, which taught us just how stiff the cold can make coax and fingers. My friend managed to get a dipole into a tree but I settled for a small vertical clamped to the roof rack of my Forester. I worked from the back seat with my KX3 and a tablet on a lap desk, occasionally running the engine to get some heat into the car. https://www.flickr.com/photos/54171525@N00/46850021342/ Tomorrow the forecast is for a balmy 32 with only an inch of snow. 73, Aaron - AC9OH On Thu, Jan 23, 2020, at 11:54 PM, Jim Brown wrote: > On 1/23/2020 6:38 PM, Wayne Burdick wrote: > > I'm embarrassed to report that we've lost our Winter here in the Bay Area > > As a refugee from Chicago, I can state with certainty that there is no > such thing as "winter" in the Bay Area.
