[MRCA] Field Day

[MKDORNEY at aol.com]

I missed Field Day locally ( I had to work), but I understand that one of  
our local clubs had quite and experience.  Specifically, certain gifted  
members of one club now, through personal experience, can answer the  question 
"What goes snap, crackle, BOOM?  The answer is electronic gear  rated at 110 
volts AC when it's connected to a generator putting out 220  volts AC.  It 
did take these certain, specially gifted  individuals three times hooking up 
three different pieces of equipment to figure  the problem out. There were 
explosions, flames, and screams (nobody  was injured, though,  thank God).  
 
Darn, July 4th came early, and I missed it.

Hey Ray,  




Im sorry we didn't think of you this year.  I assumed you had alot  if 
invitations.    The Amish chapter had one hell of a field day.!  Massive food 
spread, adult beverage in the evening.   Good number  of contacts and a nice 
band opening on Sunday.   We even ran a few groups  of scouts thru thier 
radio merit badge and the got on air contacts and a Fox  hunting.   Best field 
day yet.


I will put you in the email list next year.  Not long till able  Archer 83 !

Wow, it was Field Day this last weekend! Did anyone else notice? The last  
several years a friend would invite me over his place and we used it as an  
excuse to all sit around and have a big meal, drink, talk and maybe play a  
little Ham radio in the process. But did not hear from him the week before  
so going to assume that he did not hold the usual shindig this year. That or 
 maybe I was not invited?
