If you're looking for something to do this weekend and like Science $ Technology I have a suggestion.

Here's my antenna...

tomorrow morning we'll hoist that up one of 7 55' military communications towers and chat with other groups participating around the country
We'll be on the air for 24 hours straight from 2 pm Saturday

Went to Marlton to visit Shawn at Field Day this morning and was really impressed with the setup. All I can say is its come a long since I was a active Ham Radio Operator. Leave it to Shawn, the air conditioning in the Syncro is great.

May be an improvement in efficiency to the swamp cooler, but doesn't cause quite a bit of wind drag?
I'm jealous!
