Amateur Radio video: The Last Big Field Day

The Last Big Field Day is a new 41-minute video from Amateur Radio Video News that tells the story of world class Field Day station W3AO that since 1999 has topped the ARRL's Field Day Top 10 list, beating 2nd place by a wide margin. 

In 2004, the operation listed itself as 50A. That’s 50 transmitters, 10 towers a myriad of antennas and something that intrigued film maker Gary Pearce, KN4AQ. So armed with his video production gear, Gary traveled to the W3AO site to capture the moment and tell the tale to the world.

As Gary tells the story, it took a few years to find the time to get The Last Big Field Day into post production and duplicated. Now, just in time for release at the 2011 Dayton Hamvention the DVD is ready for the world to see. 

A preview of The Last Big Field Day can be seen below.
