Stop by and see what amateur radio emergency communications is all
about
Setup begins about 9am and official operations begin at 1pm on
Saturday. Field Day officially lasts for 24 hours and will be complete
at 1pm on Sunday.
Field Day is ham radio's open house. Every
June, more than 40,000 hams throughout North America set up temporary
transmitting stations in public places to demonstrate ham radio's
science, skill and service to our communities and our nation. It
combines public service, emergency preparedness, community outreach,
and technical skills all in a single event. Field Day has been an
annual event since 1933, and remains the most popular event in ham
radio.
