Hi Everybody!
Yes! IT IS TIME FOR WINTER FIELD DAY !

GO PORTABLE and have some WINTER FUN!

Date:     January 27th and 28th

Hours:  2pm EST Saturday to 2pm EST Sunday.

Excerpted From the Winter Field Day Association (WFDA)....

We believe, as do those entities of ARRL Organizations like ARES, that maintaining your operational skills should not be limited to fair weather scenarios. The addition of Winter Field Day will enhance those already important skills of those that who generously volunteer their time and equipment to these organizations. This is why WFD is open to all licensed amateur radio operators worldwide.

Disasters are unpredictable by nature and can strike when you least expect them. WFDA's goal is to help enhance your skills and ready you for all environmental conditions found in the US and Canada during the spring, summer, fall and winter Preparedness is the key to a professional and timely response during any event and this is what local and state authorities are expecting when they reach out to the emergency service groups that offer their services.

If you are serious about emergency communications as we are; we welcome you to join us for our yearly event. We are sure you will find this event a pleasant change and challenge to that of a normal summer time field day.
