ARRL/CCARC Field Day 2013

22-23 June 2013

 

We are in need of a few more folks to help with CCARC Field Day security, operators, planning & preparation.  Meetings are held on the 2nd Saturday monthly.  See the Calendar page for the time and place. 

 

The ARRL Field Day objective is … “To work as many stations as possible on any and all amateur bands (excluding the 60, 30, 17, and 12-meter bands) and to learn to operate in abnormal situations in less than optimal conditions. Field Day is open to all amateurs in the areas covered by the ARRL/RAC Field Organizations and countries within IARU Region 2. DX stations residing in other regions may be contacted for credit, but are not eligible to submit entries.

 

Have you scheduled yourself to take a shift as a Field Day operator or logger?  To see the list of scheduled operators for the different bands, click here.  We do need many more folks to volunteer for a shift on a position.  Please check the list and volunteer.

 

If you are interested and have some ideas to make it a great program this year, contact…

 

Larry/W7HGC or Pat/KE7UBF at fieldday@w7aia.org

 

…and let him know of your desires.  Our club appreciates your help in this important activity.

Gee Creek I-5 SB Rest Stop

27-28 July 2013

 

It’s that time again for our Gee Creek Rest Stop service project.  Although the shifts are all full at the moment, if you are interested and available, please contact Jerry/K7KWO at geecreek@w7aia.org and he will know you are available as an alternate.  Every once and a while a scheduled person has something come up and Jerry needs to scramble to find someone to step in.  Letting him know ahead of time that you are available will ease his stress level!

Thank you for your support, Jerry/K7KWO
