Field Day

Field Day is always held on the 4th full weekend in June. HIARC holds its field day at the Grant Seafood Festival Park, in Grant Fl.

Every June, more than 40,000 hams throughout North America set up temporary transmitting stations in public places to demonstrate ham radio's science, skill and service to our communities and our nation. It combines public service, emergency preparedness, community outreach, and technical skills all in a single event. Field Day has been an annual event since 1933, and remains the most popular event in ham radio.

Field Day rules are available on the ARRL Site 2023 Field Day Rules
