Hi Ken,
Field Day originally started out not being a contest and the ARRL still insists it's not. Signal reports are not required, only Call, Class and Section. So the old '59' contest report is moot. Like you said, it's the friends, the food and the fun.
Oh by the way, did you see K3MP's Field Day thread started a few days ago?
I'll be doing 10 and maybe 20m SSB for our club here in Manchester, CT as W1BRS, 7A, CT.
73 and Y'ALL have fun this week end!!!!!!!!!
