[TMRA] Field day update

[Stephen Bellner]

  * We will be meeting at the lock up about 12 pm on Friday. Pickup
    trucks are needed please. We will be getting the tent and poles. The
    ladder. Rope and tie-downs. Generator. Aluminum camouflage poles.

  * At 1 pm we will be at the field day site and start unloading the
    tent and proceed with its construction. I request that all stations
    / antennas be installed after the clubs' tent and tables are in
    place.  This is to help keep the field clear for moving tables and
    gear around to different areas of the site.

  * It is recommended that you use powerpole connections for deployed
    equipment.

  * The Pink team is acquiring equipment and has a design  for their
    station. It includes the Crappie beam and a 20 meter dipole. The
    Pink team will need manpower for setting the antenna and ladder in
    place so please help them when they are ready to install the beam.

  * WA8SYD is our safety officer and will be observing activities and
    making sure safety is first.

  * Logging software is available and can be downloaded from
    http://www.n3fjp.com/

  * The GOTA station will operate under the call sign KE8HEY...
    Congratulations to Tabatha! New ham :-) The GOTA station will be
    operating 6 meters, 2 meters, and 440.   The GOTA station will
    likely need help putting up their mast too.

  * The Green Team has their plans in place for a dipole and a vertical.

  * The Orange team has plans in place for the 80 meter dipole and the
    160 meter inverted "L" as well as an 80 meter NVIS.

  * Here is the Menu and dinning plan for the weekend.
