[TVARC] Field Day Sign-up Sheet

[Paul Nittel]

Excellent point, Tim!

Certainly there are opportunities for newer hams to observe and even 
help the person who's operating. We aim to keep the "pressure" 
manageable for everyone!

For those of you who might be hesitant, we will have the GOTA (Get On 
The Air) station available. You don't have to spend an hour operating, 
but can spend enough time to get a feel for Field Day!

73,
Paul, KM4PIH
