Congratulations to the whole W5TI Field Day Team!

^ These guys really mean business! Trying to pull in that weak one from the pile-up on W5TI are (left to right) Jeff (future Ham), Glenn (KE5LC), Jim  (KA9QHR) and Bill (KA9IKK).

^ Old Bill (W5HTG) hasn't lost a bit of his SSB skills in retirement. Lawson (N5ATT), Harvey (WA5PAJ) & Bill keep W5TI active.

^ Now we know why W5TI is blowing them out of Texas! It's that BIG BEAM on 10, 15 & 20!

^ Show them how to do it on 6 meters, Gail (KC5QDQ).

^ The ole pro, Bob (W5XC) works wonders on 20 meters.

^ The "prototype" W5TI QSL card, with design by W5XC. Coming to a station near you!

Hope you enjoyed our field day photos. See you for '98 field day. 73 de N5ATT.
