HB RACES Field Day 2006
2006 ARRL Field Day Station: On the beach bluff at
Pacific Coast Highway and Goldenwest. Used 100%
alternative power (battery, wind and solar) at a public
location with visits by Gordon West, Suzie West and Bob
Heil. Dave Glawson, WA6CGR of www.pacwind.net provided a
1KW Vertical Axis Wind Turbine for our use. We
demonstrated ATV from our city helicopter and also
received ATV from Costa Mesa stations. Integrated the
activity with our CERT communicator program as a kick off
for their upcoming new ham class in August. Photos and
