Lot of us are selling in the 77 and 38 hundreds neighborhoods, did not think about those without spaces! As always I will be there in 7739 and usually have radios set up in the 7740 – 42 MMRCG pavilion, and we always have some spare backpacks for visitors to use. Imagine the parking lot would work also along with any distant stations. Biggest issue with 5357 is that when the sun goes down and the band opens long the digital crap takes over.

We could always do it from our spots in the parking lot, and call it "the Parking Lot Net."

Lot of us have stuff for sixty meters, PRC-74 and 70 sets along with all the bigger stuff like the PRC-47 that can be dragged out into the field. Every year we do a field exercise up in Gilbert PA that’s centered around people running different backpack and mobile military radios on 5357 and am always amazed by  how many people back at there home QTH can take part and work the portables.

Maybe we can do a close of the day brag net on Thursday and Friday?

On Friday and Saturday they shut down the Flea market at five and start pushing everyone off site before six but think if we did the net at five that will still give us plenty of time.

A daily brag net from the foxhole  sounds like fun
