Remote Irony

Well, the 6600s will play nice together. My buddy and I had a pair of 6400s in close proximity last year and it was amazing. We could operate on the same band if one was on CW and one on phone. Never heard a peep out of each other if we were on different bands.

I am bringing my KPA500, but if I can get away with it, I will leave it off. I added a second 100 W solar panel to my camper this year, so I may be able to operate without the generator if I don't run the amp.

Have fun, and with any luck, the 7300 won't get in the way too much...

Well, now that I installed the second solar panel on my camper, we had the rainiest, cloudiest Field Day I have ever experienced... The generator got more of a workout than I was hoping for, but I still had a great time, and my Flexicraft station worked perfectly.

Last year, I couldn't use my TeensyMaestro at Field Day because I didn't realize that I had no DHCP service (obvious when you think about it, but at the time...). I fixed that little oversight and it worked great this year.

The Flex makes a really great FD rig, even in the crowded confines of my camper. On CW, I didn't mess with the amplifier, 100 W worked fine. On SSB, I used the amp extensively, and even managed Slovenia and Italy on 20 with my 30 ft high inverted V.

I even left one square foot of space on my dinette table for eating meals...
