[Harc] New Members/Tech's on Field Day

[Anthony Wiese]

Looking back on last weeks HARC Net, I realize that I didn't introduce the concept of Field Day to new members the way I had intended.  I hope I didn't scare off anybody.  New and/or Technician Class members can and should participate without trepidation.  In fact, the circumstances causing us to be separated this year are creating unique opportunities for us.  Ben and I are polishing up a plan to encourage new member participation by catering to Tech privileges.  In the mean time, please enjoy this well done short video of what Field Day in the time of Covid.
