Here are some of the WA7LAW Field Day 2011 Photos, at GRID: CN87UW99VR
Although, Paul is not the owner of the above Antique Equipment, he is the; owner / operator / program-director, of a micro power Old-Time AM Broadcast Band Radio Station, see: http://www.radio1610.us/.
The main tent was the center of operations, with most antenna connection and operating stations. A Generator and Solar Cells provided the power.
Outside, a Bar-B-Que and treats were setup for Lunch and late night meals.
In the main tent, cross band interference was a bit of a problem, but many people were working to resolve the issue.
Bob showed me his 20m Mag Loop, I was really impressed, it was easy to tune by listening for max volume, and then the Ft-817 reported a very Low SWR on transmit. The Loop can be turned quickly to maximize the received signal.
Unfortunately, we did not have much time to use or play with the Loop.
