[SMCARA] SMCARA Field Day 2011 wrap-up comments

[Clarke, Tom AIR4.0P NATOPS]

I certainly echo those comments.  The best FD in memory.  Great fun,
awesome to see all the families and kids Saturday evening too.  The new
venue has a  lot going for it!  We probably should consider a token
contribution to the HVFD to express our appreciation. Same idea as the
"brick" we purchased from the museum.

Before we forget all the details, please think of any lessons learned or
things to do better next year and bring them to the next meeting or
shoot Pete or me an email. Things that went well too.

My observation was that the filters and/or the use of 50 watts kept the
interference to a minimum.  None of it bothered me on 75 or Six meters.
Also keeping the logging computers on "shore power" will help the
network problems.

write down some thoughts and facts about this year's event:
