DVRA will participate in the annual ARRL Field Day, the premier on-the-air event for radio amateurs across North America. Part picnic, part emergency drill, and part informal contest, Field Day highlights the versatility of amateur radio.
Event Schedule
- Setup: Saturday, June 27 at 12:00 PM
- Operations Begin: Saturday, June 27 at 2:00 PM
- Operations End: Sunday, June 28 at 12:00 PM
We will construct and operate three temporary stations on the grounds of the W2ZQ shack, powered entirely by generators to simulate emergency conditions. Our focus is threefold:
- Constructing and operating temporary stations.
- Honing operating skills in abnormal situations in less-than-optimal conditions.
- Connecting with fellow club members.
Food will be available throughout the event on both Saturday and Sunday. Whether you are a veteran operator or just curious about the hobby, we encourage you to stop by, see the stations in action, and participate.
For questions or to get involved please reach out to Jon, W8JRF at w8jrf@arrl.net
