FDay 2021 at NME’s


News / Saturday, July 3rd, 2021


SWIARC Field Day 2021 was held at George KDONME’s place in SE Council Bluffs. Rick KAORLR was FDay Chairman, and we ran category 4A IA. Gary KC8JOK had an impressive setup, out back behind George’s gazebo, seen here with Gary’s 2kW Honda in the foreground. Actually, Gary is in the orange tent Behind The Gazebo, but isn’t that an interesting picture? Overcast sky made for an eerie feeling. All you needed was for the Doctor’s blue Tardis to land in the grass foreground.
