Dr Mark and Rosemary, NM0D & KE5CMS, hosted the Evergreen Church Group (EverGreenCG . org) at their hilltop venue Saturday morning 06.13. It’s a great place for Field Day type operations with a large pond (reflecting ground) and plenty of trees for antenna support and shade. That’s Mark K5LGS in blue.

Kenny KJ5EKW arrived early with his car full of: backpack with a Yaesu 857 all band all mode rig inside; MFJ manual tuner; large (4 in) screen VNA; hundred Amp LifePo; table and chairs, and a six foot (the yellow stick on the ground) high power Sling Shot to put his 88 foot end fed antenna in the trees. After setup he went back home to get his mom.

Deb K5DBE and Sam KJ5BJR also showed up. In this pic Lt Dan K5CAY has his (red) chair and wide range (25 to 1000 Mc) Discone antenna out of the car. Almost out of sight in hte previous pic, Denny KI5VWF is down by the pond with his Yaesu 891 HF and 6M rig. Evergreen group meets 2nd Saturday at the church on 111th, and talks on 145.25 Mon and Thurs at 7PM.
