T took the pics and shot the video in this very low budget production of the day's activities.

Antenna Project? Beware of Summertime Heat

Well my fellow Hamsters summertime is here and temperatures have soared near or over the century mark in many parts of the country.

 That said, please be aware that the temperatures we are experiencing can cause serious heat injuries.


Below is a Youtube video covering heat injuries. Although the nurse in the video is talking about this subject related to children, this info also applies to adults.


This is great information. Pay attention when you are out on field day and when working on antennas and such. Ham radio is a fantastic hobby, but don’t get n trouble in the summer heat.
