Stuart's Sandsprit Park became the epicenter of Amateur Radio in Martin County on Friday morning with the setup of our stations for Field Day 2018. While we deployed our new 106-foot tower trailer for the first time, several others worked to locate and capture two 70 cm foxes hiding in the foliage around the park. The setup went flawlessly, with many hands making light the work.
Our stations went On-The-Air on Saturday afternoon at 2 PM, joining thousands of others in the largest Amateur Radio event of the year!
A few hours later, a massive smorgasboard of BBQ showed up, and the party was officially in full swing! Combine the sounds of SSB and CW, four kinds of BBQ, and the fellowship of good friends, add you have a recipe for an unforgettable event. Thanks to all who participated!
