Radio Amateur's Field Day
Since 1934,
Field Day (FD) is an emergency preparedness exercise
between Radio
Amateurs in the U.S. (and possesions) and Canada.
Amateur radio
operators setup radio stations at campsites, malls, schools,
emergency
centers, in mobiles, maratime-mobiles and all manner of public places.
Since 1985,
WQ6X has participated with team-W6SW at Sawmill Camp Flats (1985 - 1993),
at a cabin
house (1994) and on Mt. Abel (1995 - 2009) in S. Kern county.
Photos from previous FD's can be found in my FaceBook photo album.
