Field Day – June 22 & 23, 2013

We will be joining the Haywood County Amateur Radio Group again this year for field day! Field day is an exciting 24 hours of non-stop radio-contacts that are made from around the world. This is done in an effort to accomplish a number of things; One- Test our equipment. Two-Contest, who can get the most successful contacts? Three- Emergency Preparedness, How well is our gear operating, how far can we talk, how fast can we setup and shut down? Four- To interact with the public, and let those who are interested try their hand at making a contact or two!

This year, the HC-ARC will be setup between the Sheriff’s office, Belk, and the Car Wash in Haywood County Just off of Exit 98 on Highway 23/74 in Waynesville.

Here’s a link to the Haywood County Club’s Website, with a map and physical address.
