Is anyone else doing Field Day? How's it going? In the NE US, it's been very hot and humid with occasional thunderstorms.

Running a QRP station here and taking a break for the evening. Planning on getting up early tomorrow.

We ended up besting our last year record. We ran 2B (battery) and it was a little challenging early on making SSB QSOs with 5w but we pulled through. Did a lot of digital this year. Could have done better but we were plagued with bad weather and thunderstorms.

Worked all bands but 10m wasn't good.
