June 27, 2010 - James KC9RVP (left) and Dean KC9EOQ (right) operate together during Field Day 2010. The goal is to make as many contacts as you can during the 24 hour event. James is at the microphone and controlling the radio while Dean is mentoring and running the logging computer. Each contact consists of a complete exchange of vital information, including the ham radio call sign being used, the class of operation and the section (state) where the transmitter is operating from. The FRRL used the club call of W9NE, 6A (six stations, emergency power) IL (Illinois Section). |
