[FARC] MADXRA Field Day - 80 Meter Station

[Joseph M. Durnal]

1. 500 East Main Street, Burkittsville, MD. 21718

2. Well, I'm setting up in two phases, 2PM on Friday, I'll get the
antennas and other physical infrastructure setup for 80, then sometime
on Saturday morning, I'll set up the rigs, etc.

3.  I'm planning a tent for me and my son, and probably my father in
law too, he was interested in coming, said he would stay the whole
time!
