It’s easy to use the hand cranked generator while operating. That’s what they make teenage sons for.

Need to rig the Clansman genny so it's pedal powered rather than hand cranked. My brain/motor skills would find that easier

Breck you are the undisputed king of field ops! I must say I have a hard time rubbing my stomach and patting my head at the same time. I think cranking and sending CW would be quite the challenge!

Ive posted some pictures and comments for  Field day last summer. I attempted to use and evaluate  End Fed Half Wave antennas and a simple matching network and use a Magnetic loop. Power consisted entirely of solar panels (No Batteries) and a hand crank Clansmen Generator which was interesting - - -  cranking while working CW.
