The Public Is Welcome To Visit Us
Stop by and see what amateur radio emergency communications is all about
Official operations begin at 1pm on Saturday and continue for a full 24 hours
ARRL Field Day is the single most popular on-the-air event held annually in the US and Canada. Each year over 35,000 amateurs gather with their clubs, friends or simply by themselves to operate.
ARRL Field Day is not a fully adjudicated contest, which
explains
much of its popularity. It is a time where many aspects of
Amateur Radio come together to highlight our many roles.
While some will treat it as a contest, most groups use the opportunity
to practice their emergency response capabilities.
It is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate Amateur Radio to
local elected community leaders, key individuals with the organizations
that
Amateur Radio might serve in an emergency, as well as the general
public.
For many clubs, ARRL Field Day is one of the highlights of their
annual calendar.
We will be located behind the YMCA
building in Springfield. The address is 3332 Tom Austin Hwy,
right across from NorthCrest Hospital.
Stay tuned to this page for more
information as planning gets underway.
