[NLRS] Field Day comments

[daniel monson]

Hi Matt, we at WCARS consider FD more of a fun day first of all, a PR event
second, with emergency comunication third.  And of course the VHF station
is welcomed, it dosen't count in the radio count, so a 2 alpha is still a 2
alpha even with the addition of VHF-UHF.  With a good opening, that's
150-250 'free' Q's.  WCARS will be in Monticello this year with 6, 2, and
432 up at 60+ feet.  Give us a shout!

As FD quickly approaches our local club has started a discussion about FD
and
the subject of the Incident Command System was brought up in concert with
the
event.  Some folks think it makes sense to utilize this type of stucture in
a
"drill" such as Field Day.

I just wanted to take a quick poll of how other clubs/groups handle their
FD
with respect to the organization side.  You may fire back comments directly
to
me or share thoughts on this list if you wish. (KF0Q at hbci dot com)   I
just
didn't want to tie up more bandwidth on this list about this subject.  I am
happy however that our local group does appreciate the place VHF and up has
at
any FD setup.  If I get a whole bunch of great ideas I may summarize them
here
later.
