Is there going to be an all-natural power station this year or will I need
to bring my natural-power QRP station for some extra points?

I have a lap-top that can be used for the 10th station if needed with an
UPS for battery backup (the internal batts are not worth much.)

I believe I now WILL be in town for Field-Day!
