After the Thursday coffee/breakfast at Flying Star, nost of the attendees headed over to Balloon Fiesta Park to set up High Desert Amateur Radio Club display for Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.. In addition to setting up the informational booth shown here, the group erected 3 antennas for HF, VHF, and UHF (high frequency, very-high frequency, and ultra-high frequency) contacts.
The club will be operating SSTV (slow-scan TV), voice, digital modes, and "Morse" code. Two popular Albuquerque area nets will be run fron this station during the fiesta.
At the Balloon Fiesta you will find us in the Balloon Discovery Tent at the North end of the field. On the air, listen to call-sign W5B.
