Those of us who did not leave after the boat ride stayed to help set up tables and chairs for the evening BBQ. The BBQ was lit at 6PM with Jim WA6MZV as the BBQ pit master, As always he did a great Job. There was plenty of food for all tastes and there was plenty of commeradery. As the evening wore on with plenty of good food an conversation as well as some anoncements by club members, It was a fun time had by all.I look forward to next year. Thanks also to Beverly for her work for the boat ride and BBQ.

It was a nice sunny day on Friday August 20th as we all arrived dock side at the LA Maritime Museum for our annual trip around the harbor onboard the LA city yacht Angelena II. After everyone was checked in, we boarded the boat and off we went after a short safety talk and life vest demo. Enroute down the main channel, we saw some harbor seals. They were quite noisy and big. We saw some younger ones on a BOUY as well. We saw a pirate ship from San Diego, a replica of course. During our cruise we passed by a couple freighter/container ships and the old cruise terminal where The Love Boat TV show was filmed. After our cruise and back at the dock, we were told the Angelena was going green and will be getting electrical engines very soon.
We all had FUN FUN FUN!!!

After struggling for years to make more than five satellite contacts on Field Day, I was finally rewarded this year with the highest number of satellite contacts I've ever made.
What was different this year that was lacking in years past?

I, W6ADC, had the pleasure of managing the club GOTA station this year. Different from years past, we setup the station below the Angels Gate Cultural Arts campus on the grounds of Old Fort MacArthur. We have a pretty decent turnout of public visitors as well as a number of inactive licensed operators, many friendly faces, and a few four legged ones as well. Two boys, Justin KI6FTP (12) and Issac KI6FXM (10) stole the show with well over 50 QSOs. Check out the video below of "the boys" working 10 meters in the last hour of the contest!
