I believe it is this weekend, Bill. I just did a quick Google Search
for Vintage Field Day, and came across a posting by Jerry/K5AXN who
usually goes to his property in Cibolo, TX, sets up a Valian, a Viking
II and various receivers under a canopy of shade from a LARGE Pecan
tree, along the banks of the Cibolo Creek.
This is something Jerry's been doing for a number of years, now. I'm
afraid Jerry doesn't have much time left to do these types of things.
He and his wife are generous, sweet souls, the type of humans we all
know we -should- be.
