Andrew Watson, KD5NNN, was kind enough to send us some more photos which he took while wandering around the San Antonio combined Field Day Site on Saturday, June 27th.
And as usual, please help us in identifying the hams in each photo. If we’ve failed to identify a person properly or not at all, please post a comment letting us know which photo to update and we’ll get it taken care of.
Temperatures broke the 100 degree barrier once more before we shut down operations and departed shortly after 1pm. In fact, one of our unofficial thermometers over in the shaded grassy area (yes, we had one, but just one such area) where the welcome station was located, reported 104 degrees at 10:30am, and 110 degrees at 1pm when we shut down. Official temps according to the weather service only hit 101 degrees as of 5pm. Of course, we were within 1/2 mile of all that pavement over at Port San Antonio’s Airport (formerly known as Kelly AFB or Kelly USA).
