Not from here! In the first 55 minutes, I made 125 contacts on 40 SSB. I'm
sure that I could have made another 300-400, as the rate was still there,
but I had all I could stand of SSB! Having two elements at 50' helped
considerably! :))
While I agree that Field Day should be a "training" for "real" emergency
situations, it's painfully evident that those that are accustomed to
exchanging information (read that as a contest exchange) correctly, fare far
better than those that try in only on Field Day?
