Winter Field Day – January 25

?

“ The goal of the Winter Field Day Association is to help amateur radio operators improve their preparedness for disasters and enhance their operational abilities. The winter months present unique challenges for operating, including shorter days, the potential for freezing temperatures, snow, ice, and other hazards.

?

?Our annual Winter Field Day Exercise is not a contest but a practical field exercise designed to push your emergency preparedness skills to the limit and test your capabilities in diverse and demanding conditions. By setting up a station away from the comforts of home, you can significantly enhance your readiness for disasters and improve your operating skills in challenging environments.”

?

We are planning to set up 2 stations at the Fire Training Center.? Since the event starts at 11 AM Saturday, we are planning to start setting up 2 hours before that, e.i. 9 AM.

?

If you have an antenna you want to set up for us to use that would be great.? It can be a total experiment on your part.? A Quad, Dipole, End Fed or whatever you want to dream up.? Bring it along with your ideas.

?

This is a 30 hour event, however we do not have plans for operating overnight, and Sunday operation will depend upon operators committing to come.? Please let us know your plans.

?

If you have questions, ideas or are willing to commit some time operating, please let me know, KG2H@....
