Field Day Archive

ARRL-sponsored Field Day, a world-wide ham radio emergency-prepardness drill, is conducted ever year on the fourth full weekend in June. This page presents our plans for the current year's Field Day, and what we've done in the past few years. Feel free to download the MP3 files for your own Club's use.
