looks like a typical field-day set up to me.

in the world of amature radio we have a field day once a year, where you take you ham radio station to a remote location and not useing any public utilites at all, you run your station for 24 hrs steady making all the contacts you can,
its pourpose is to simulate a emergency situtation and profency of operation under less deseriable conditions.

I have done this for a great many years and it is a family afaire too, lots of fun
