To be sure there are no problems, all equipment, cables and supplies will be given a through check out the day before Field Day. The only added supply will be a toolkit just in case. This means ONE radio, ONE coax cable, ONE multi-band &#8220;inverted V&#8221; antenna (W2IK design), ONE telescoping mast, etc. The radio will be powered by twin deep-cycle batteries charged by banks of solar panels. ONE 10&#215;10 canopy will shade both the operating area and cooking area where a propane grill will cook the meals. W2IK will be operating <strong>1Batt, STX <\/strong>so if you hear him, please give a shout out. Logging will be accomplished by a net-book with &#8220;SQUIRL Field Day Logger&#8221; program. As always, a paper log will provide back up. Pictures will be taken of the event to be posted at SA Hams. <\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">W2IK<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since we weren&#8217;t happy with any of the local radio club offerings for Field Day, Bob, W2IK, along with Krissy, KD5YTN, have planned a &#8220;Minimalistic Field Day&#8221; this year.\u00a0We will be operating from a local park (to be determined), bringing only the simplest of equipment, unlike previous operations where a massive amount of equipment was [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[19,4,14],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5478"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5478"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5478\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5480,"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5478\/revisions\/5480"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5478"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5478"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/sanantoniohams.org\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5478"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
