[K6NCG] Field Day on Treasure Island.

[petevanp at pacbell.net]

Good morning Desmond,
I'll get it on my list of things to do for field day, I usually try to get 
around to a few sites to see what is going on.
Is the old K6NCG site still accessible, or has it been overbuilt by the base 
housing that went in the N/W corner of the island?
Since moving back to the bay area in 87, I've been back by the island a few 
times, but all my old landmarks are gone.
Good luck!
