Field Day At Harrison High

I remember some details from the Field Day out at Harrison High School. JimWilson and TomTengdin had the telephone pole climbing jobs to string the dipoles. The radio operation was out of the press box at the top of the grandstand. Tom brought a propane fueled generator. ?NeilSydor, WB9AUU, was one of several crack contest operators. PeteHallenbeck, WA1YNN, may have been around for it too. His wife Jill, WB9STW, (a first-class EE) was probably around also. -- SteveBelter

We generally ran two stations. I remember setting up one in what I think was a breezeway, and the other in the pressbox. ?WardCunningham developed the SuperDuper to computer-log the contest, which was something pretty rare back in those days. -- TomDoligalski
