ARRL FIELD DAY – JUNE 24, 2017 – 12:00 – 18:00
MCARC
Creekwood Community Center
All are invited to come out and join MCARC as we once again participate in Field Day.
Along with fellow Ham operators nationwide, this event allows us to practice emergency communications through setting up HF, Digital, VHF, and UHF radio stations in the field, using portable generators as the power source.
In order of this event to be successful we need participation in operating radios. The more operators we have the more successful this event will be. Please make your plans to be here for Field Day 2017.
BBQ will be provided by MCARC. Please bring snack items and/or dessert items for the meal at 16:00.
Participants are encouraged to download and read the Field Day Rules from the ARRL website at http://www.arrl.org/field-day . Changes do happen in the rules from year to year, so it is important to know that.
For more information contact this year’s Field Day Coordinator, Rev. Greg Knippa, KD5HLV.
