G'day,

| the 80m Club Championships may lead to more entries in NFD this year. Go
| to http://www.contesting.co.uk/hfcc/features/articles/fograt.shtml and
| find out how easy it can be to set up a field day station!

And read the following potentially lethal comment:

///
Whatever generator is used, it is worth applying a constant minimum load 
of at least 100w, and this can be done by mounting a 100w bulb on a post 
by the generator. This also makes it easier to fill the generator in the 
middle of the night.
///

Fill the genny whilst its running!  Most warn you to switch it off and let 
it cool for a couple of minutes, that is unless you like skin grafts.

Regards,

Mike VP8NO
