[K3CAL] Field Day checklist for equipment and supplies

[David Hardy]

I'm thinking one genset would be plenty.  I'll have a 2.8kw in the camper that can be used if we need to continue ops during refueling breaks.  If Bob Balint brings his camper, he has a genset also, though I can't volunteer his for him.  I will not need power from the club genset.  I'll be using solar power and stored solar energy.  If that runs out, will use my own genset.

Jim,

As usual, excellent input!  This is what I need to hone the list and 
what we need.  I think we rented two of the generators last year and 
needed only one.  I'm digging out my paperwork now. We've had a couple 
of emergencies here at the house that have put me off schedule.

I know it's on the discuss list for the June 1 monthly meeting. As well 
as the rest of the FD stuff.

"Lean and mean"??  We can all be mean, but LEAN??? BWWWAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!  
You funny, funny man!!!

That does not include the Gota station or the vhf talk in station, computers lights etc. Since we are in a building that has ample electricity for all electronics our generator power needs should be low. Three radios? Thus a Three KW gen set (Honda inverter, quiet output) may just do the job. May not requite the power board just three cords from the ten set. This was just an observation and suggestion, so we can be lean and mean. Of corse we have to decide how many contest stations we want and how to register with ARRL.
