Field Day is a national emergency communications exercise. It is also a competition to see how many contacts we can make nationwide while out in the field operating on batteries and temporary antennas. We are preparing to make a good showing in Alabama. We will operate two phone stations on solar-charged batteries. As always, our Field Day event will have great food and wonderful camaraderie. We will run Field Day from a farm in Snowdoun, AL.

We participate in the national emergency communications exercise called Field Day. It is a great day for camping out, running radios on generators and solar power, and enjoying great cooking!
We keep our radio direction finding skills sharp with regular fox hunts. Of course, they are a great excuse to get together and have fun!
Getting together and solving the problems of the world, all over delicious barbecue.
