Happy Field Day!! It’s going to be a scorcher, so bring water and make sure you stay hydrated!! You might also throw in a lawn chair.

A few of us gathered radios and antennas yesterday and think we have everything needed to get set up and operating. If anyone has short PL259 to PL259 jumpers, 2 to 3 feet, we could possibly use a few to add in band pass filters. I’m going to check my box of miscellaneous stuff I could never get rid of and see if I have some before I leave.

We’ll have 3 stations operating SSB on 40, 20, and 15 or 10. An FT8 station that will operate wherever the band allows for the most contacts, and a GOTA station (Get on the Air). I’ll have to look at the rules once again, but believe the GOTA station will operate under the callsign of whoever is controlling it at the time instead of the club callsign, so our club classification today will be 4F. ?

We hope you can come join us! We figure we’ll operate until about 8pm tonight, give or take, so swing by and join in!!
