My Field Day "Operations Tent": a new 13' octagonal tent, first time used and loved it! I camped at 10.100', at Kenosha Pass, Colo. (Grid Square DM79cj) My first contacts were Sweden, Bavaria and central Italy. I was thrilled! I used four lead-acid batteries, a 24-year-old Kenwood TS-140 and a full G5RV. It was a wonderful adventure. I made many great contacts. 73 Kevin/KD0VHD, Tiny Town, Colo.
