All,
For those who have been a part of Field Days with me in the past, I will be providing the same power distribution /extension cord arrangements that I have used in the past. Since we have worked the Brooms Island center before, I am familiar with the requirements and distances needed. The standard practice is to provide your own power strips, etc. I will need a primary generator (quiet), and a secondary generator as a backup if possible.

( We waited until FD morning one year, and boy that was a mistake! We haven't had a printer on site before, but it might be useful. 73,
