I passed the FCC General test the day before Field Day 2009. The next day
I showed up at Woodley Island around noon to see what it was all about.
HARC was taking down the masts when I arrived. Someone greeted me and
showed me around, and I was hooked.
Field Day is more than a contest, it's Amateur Radio's Open House. We want
the public and local officials to come and see, not only what we can do,
but how we have fun doing it.
The site is open to the public on Saturday June 28 from 11:00 am to 4:00
pm, but *all hams are welcome for the entire event*. You can help out or
just show up and hang out - there will be hams doing both. And we'll have
5 radio stations with General or higher licences as Control Operators, so
you can work all the HF bands no matter your own licence. Radio contest
operations run from 11:00 am Saturday to 11:00 am on Sunday.
We begin setting up masts and antennas at 8:00 am on Saturday (coffee and
donuts), and start breaking down at 11:30 am on Sunday. There is a potluck
dinner on Saturday at 6:00.

I look forward to seeing you there.
