NOVEMBER 3 VICTOR ECHO MIKE

ham radio Projects and musings from a (Relatively) new operator

Winter Field Day

1/30/2016

2 Comments

 

​It's cold outside!

     The forecast is for the low temperature over the 24 hours of the event to hit 27F.  Hopefully I'm prepared enough to stay warm!  To let you in on a little secret, I actually started writing this post on Friday, the 29th - mainly so that I could have the template laid out, and then just start sticking pictures in as I do my setup.  Depending on the speed of the contacts, I might even throw in some "during" pictures.  There's a good chance of that, because I am by no means a big gun, and I take part in contests mostly for fun.  Hopefully you enjoy looking at these pictures, and my setup, as much as I plan on enjoying the event!
     Between last weekend and this weekend, some of our snow melted, but not much - you might be able to tell by the difference between the pic I posted last week, and the pics of the day of the event.

Eric,
Great Video! It's always fun to see what kind of stuff people played around with - I made sure to pause at the end so that I could see my call sign on the list of contacts you made :-) Looks like you guys had a great time!

    - N3VEM -

         Welcome to my Ham Radio Blog!  This blog was started primarily to share my two concurrent shack builds - my mobile station and my home station.  Over time, this has grown to include sharing about my operations, and general radio-related thoughts that I have as a newer operator.  
         
    ​Enjoy!
