Hello HARC folks,

So Winter Field Day is happening tomorrow at 8:00am and running until 
1:59pm on Sunday. We already have a dedicate crew of local hams who plan 
to operate at our site at Redwood Acres Fairgrounds for most of that 
period. Anyone is welcome to stop by and also get on the air under our 
club call sign W6ZZK. But.... if you operate at our site you can not 
also be a local WFD contact. It would be fun to have as many local hams 
as possible willing to join WFD from their own shacks, either at their 
home QTHs or maybe out in the field since the weather looks promising.

If anyone who does want to contact our W6ZZK station for WFD it would be 
great if they would be up for experimenting with differ modes and on 
different bands. Each combination counts as a new contact. So, an FM and 
a D-Star 2M contact with say, KE6WLI would count as two contacts. Also 
all digital modes are allowed except for the WSJT modes (JS8Call is 
allowed.) Also we can make peer to peer APR and Winlink contacts if 
anyone is interested.

Folks operating as W6ZZK will periodically announce that WFD is 
happening and to consider monitoring the calling frequency 146.520MHz 
for quick contacts. No contacts can happen through a repeater.

If you'd like to participate in a little Winter Field Day this year 
check out the rules here: https://winterfieldday.org/sop.php

Also use your preferred logging software that will allow you to upload 
your a Cabrillo or ADIF file.

All arrangements to hop between bands and modes has to be done via 
radio. We can not cal each other up or text to say move to such and such 
band and mode.

Anyway....

I hope you all have a great weekend and think about playing a little 
radio during Winter Field Day

Cheers,

Randy
