[HCRA] Field Day VHF Station

[gjcollins at cox.net]

By the way, I have a large tent available too, but you have to set it up :)

I used the tent for the 20-meter cw station one year and it work very well.

  I would be interested. All I would need is housing for the station, and a light for night operation. I can bring a couple chairs, and I can bring my laptop.
