Field Day with PARC
Jun 22, 2013 n/a
Camp Hannah BonnerPamlico Amateur Radio Club will be participating in a nationwide contest commonly referred to as Field Day. There isn’t a track to run on, or a shot put to toss or a high jump to make… ARRL Field Day is the single most popular on-the-air event held annually in the US and Canada with more than 35,000 radio amateurs participating.
It is a race to make the most contacts via high frequency radio in a twenty-four hour period. This annual exercise gives amateur radio operators the chance to prepare for emergency conditions. It gives them extra points for operating with emergency power. By setting up antennas and radios in “field” conditions they are preparing for a time when those skills and equipment will serve the communication needs of all of us.
Come celebrate Field Day… Camp Hannah Bonner on June 22-23, stop in and have some refreshments, work the radios and make some contacts across the nation and with Pamlico Amateur Radio Club.
