Field Day - Current Equipment Checklist

Field Day will need a wide assortment of equipment to support each of our sites. This equipment will be watched over (to the best of their abilities) by various site leaders, and returned at the end of field day. If you plan on donating hardware to field day, remember that we may need it for some of the trial runs before the field day. We will return it after each borrowing. Items like chairs and tents are not required until the actual field day :)

Please note that this is not an exhaustive list. As more planning is done, we may expand on untouched areas. I am seeking your feeback on this list. Send comments to casey@seattlewireless.net
