The Noise Blankers put on another successful multimedia field day. This included the live webcam and a ton of updates to social media.
Like last year, we operated on generator power as category 2E.
The traditional Australian Crawl took place at midnight, which featured a round of Foster’s. Also making a return this year was “topless hour” on the webcam. Kevin K5KVN was nice enough to give us the elected official bonus (city council) and Nathan K5KAC gave us the served agency bonus (fire department).
The WR5P Field Day, by the numbers:
- QSOs: 1,464
- W1AW bulletins copied: 1
- Bonus Points: 550 (and we tried for ALL of these, too.)
- Claimed score: 3,458 points
- Club members present: 6
- Webcam views: hundreds, maybe tens of thousands. Maybe not.
- View the Field Day 2014 photo gallery
- Watch our Field Day 2014 videos recorded from the webcam.
Our 2014 and 2013 Field Day logs have been uploaded to Logbook of the World and ClubLog.
