Here we are in Pennsboro, West Virginia! This is
Charlie - WB8NSL's son Ryan.
Ryan is inspecting the goodies in Keith - WA8ZWJ's trailer.
This is the road heading back to the City Park.
Sure hope it doesn't rain any more this weekend!
Charlie - WB8NSL has found the City Park.
There's the shelter. Hmm, looks like the grass needs
to be mowed.
Yep! It needs to be mowed.
Ah, this is looking better! Charlie - WB8NSL has been
busy with the push mower!
Charlie says "Looky here! I dun mowed the
grass!"
"Hmm - I wonder what call we should use this
year?"
Keith - WA8ZWJ and Don, Da Bear - KE8NK do some last minute
soldering to an antenna.
Ah, this is looking better!
The generators are set up. One for the phone station
and the other for the CW station.
Tony - WD8BOT looks a bit perplexed! For some reason
the program he has written for the Vic-20 for CW will not key the transceiver.
Tony contacted his XYL and she looked up something for him in a book at home
and he modified the program and then recompiled it!
Aha! That was it! Now it is working! Yee
haw! The CW station is now operational!
WB8NSL and WD8BOT
Field Day has started and we are on the air!
WD8BOT and KE8NK
Charlie is operating the phone station.
For some unknown reason this is the only photo of the phone station being
operated, however, it did run for the full 24 hours.
Da Bear, Tony and Charlie...

Field Day is over! We used the call of WB8NSL!
Keith - WA8ZWJ, Don - Da Bear - KE8NK, Charlie - WB8NSL and Tony - WD8BOT
This is your only other look at the phone station!
As always, a fun time was had!
