[FARC] Field Day 2010 - Plans

[Jeff Fishman]

I like the idea of perhaps operating from the club station at Independent 
Hose. The major drawback in operating from there would be the lack of 
various antennas for different bands. Another idea for a venue might be the 
site on Braddock Mtn. we used a few years ago.
