Field Day 2023 was June 24th and 25th (Saturday and Sunday) at the Harbor Fire Department/Harbor Water District parking lot at 98069 W Benham Ln.
Thanks
- Harbor Fire Department and Harbor Water District, for allowing us to use the parking lot
 - Harbor Fire Department, for donating hamburgers for Saturday dinner
 - Sprezzatura Pizza, for donating pizza for lunch on Saturday
 - Scott KJ7SUZ, for cooking the burgers
 - Andy N7SGV, for planning and coordinating the event
 
Notes for next year
- It is a good idea for at least one person to bring an air compressor and a tire pressure meter; Andy N7SGV needed to reinflate his cargo trailer tires.
 - Remember to bring any cables and adapters you will need.
 - If you have several of something you will need, bring more than one, because one will quit working.
 - It would be helpful to have everyone monitor either the Crown Terrace repeater (146.840 MHz, - offset, 88.5 Hz tone) or a simplex frequency (likely 147.420) for quick communication among members. A simplex frequency may be better because multiple radios close together using a repeater does not always work well.
