Thanks to all who participated, I really enjoyed myself with the digital station and had fun with my first year at field day.
For you that are visiting this site and are not familiar with ham radio please visit the ARRL's web site, lots of good information about what amateur radio is all about and how to get started. It is a wonderful hobby and lots of aspects. Please email me at n4dsl@atrs.com with any questions. Anyone with additional digital photos please email them to me and I will post them. If you have some hard copy photos please let me know and I can scan them in for you.
