Good for you Bob for trying the battery route. And kudos to Nancy for advancing her phone skills.

I made more contacts at 5 watts than at 20 watts. Live and learn.  I copied the Field Day Bulletin for the first time this year and it gives me a 100 point bonus. We enjoyed making simplex VHF / UHF contacts. But a better antenna should be considered for better simplex coverage of the area. There were too many people I couldn’t hear.
