[HCRA] Morons on Field Day

[Daniel Sullivan]

The other day I got an email from a ham in 5 land asking what tuner I was 
using in the field day photograph. Having no clue what he was talking about 
I asked him to send me the URL so  could look and get back to him.

Well....here is the URL..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_Day

As you can see an fringe Moron Net member (I think I checked in once but 
still failed to earn worked all Morons) is at the helm of the Solar Powered 
Station we run at W1NY in Granby, MA. How that of all pictures, of all field 
days, in all the places on Earth there are hams, was used I HAVE NO IDEA. 
Yet it's there and the question stands...What kinda tuner is it?

I think we have an MFJ tuner in that box and I think that year we had an 817 
running into some kinda vertical Yaesu dummy load...er...hand tuned 
verticle. When that failed it was put away in favor of either the GOTA 
Dipole or Tri-Bander. This would apparently be 2 years ago. Any of my Hamden 
County fellow Morons know?

As for the VWS gang just thought you'd want to know what kinda desperation 
Wikipedia has for classifying honest and forthright information. HI HI.

Oh yeah and Field Day is only a couple months away and I will be down in 
Virginia this year as I have commitments to handle on the 24th (which means 
I am only available Friday night for set-up and Sunday for a few hours of 
operating and takedown sadly). Next year I have to make an effort to op at 
W1NY again!
