[K6NCG] Field Day at Treasure Island

[Satterlee, Brian SPAWAR]

I guess I got to TI a little later (Feb of '65), and that coffee pot developed some sort of malfunction and ran full blast all the time. We used it to make popcorn since it was useless for coffee. We also had an old equipment cabinet with a long chain welded to it. It was loaded with beer and tossed into the bay to cool. Did a pretty good job too, especially in February!! Lots of fond memories and crazy stuff in that ham shack.

14.292 it is!

Look for us there...  Hopefully with the 
call!  Maybe we'll get a phone patch from KC4U-land!

I really hope some of you guys can make it.  If 
you can't, send along a story instead!  I love 
hearing them, it makes me proud to be a ham out here!

That T.I. History Day is this weekend and I'd 
like to include as much on the ham club as possible.  Come out if you can!
