Ham radio operators field day

Tuesday, July 1, 2008

Ray Adams waits for the operator to finish talking so he can give his call sign and location during the "Field Day" operation at the East Verde Estates Clubhouse.

The Tonto Amateur Radio Association demonstrated amateur radio capabilities Saturday and Sunday, June 28 and 29.

Tom Plets, left, Wayne Troutman, center, and Darde de-Roulhac, call sign AC7EP, hold the antenna pole (photo below) as fellow radio operator Ray Adams (not in picture) checks to make sure it is perpendicular before he attaches the guy wires.
