I brought two Drakes to this year's field day.

Primary was TR4CW with a RV4C. Backup was TR7.

I used MN2000 and the Dl1000 dummy load.

Fed a 20 meter "half-square" antenna.

Worked great. Had fun.

Subject: Re: [Drakelist] My Drake at Field Day

 

Years ago, I participated in a Field Day, back when the Kenwood TS940 was
fairly new.  The Kenwood was to be our primary rig and I brought my "old"
TR7, more as an afterthought, to be a back up rig.

 

As you might guess, the Kenwood had trouble and we ended up operating the
entire weekend on the Drake.

 

Still have that Drake and it still chugs along.  His Kenwood is long gone.
