In the late 1990s, I got re-infected with the ham radio virus after a long hiatus. What brought me back in was Field Day. What attracted me as I drove into the parking lot on Woodley Island was CW. KD6LM was running a TS-130 in his VW bus camper van - had his station set up on the small dining table in the middle of the vehicle. The rig fed an AT-130, which fed a W3EDP antenna. I have a photo of a clipping from the Times-Standard from, and I will attach it if I can find it. Found it. Attached.
