If any of you have ever had an interest in ham radio this weekend is the
chance to get a feel for it. Field Day is an annual event where hams set up
improvised stations and practice emergency communications. It's also a chance
for people unfamiliar with ham radio to learn about it and get on the radios.
At our event we'll have 8 stations set up ranging from traditional shortwave
bands up to modern digital communications and even a station communicating
through ham satellites. The astronauts on the space station are even planning
to get on their radios and join inthis afternoon. It lasts for a full 24 hours
and events close to you can be found at
