Field Day 96 at the ARA Site

Field Day is always a great time for all that attend. We had a good turn out, and as always, it rained. But the rain didn't dampen the spirit of all the hard core Field Day hams. To top it off, the area was hit with a Tornado to boot, we still hung in there and kept making those contacts! The local TV station did a nice job of reporting the event, and took some nice footage of some of the home brewed ham gear that was used in true Field Day fashion. All in all, the 1996 Field Day event at the ARA site was a big success! Thanks to all that helped out, and keep those pictures coming!
