FIELD DAY ------------------
Field
Day
is
an event to test the field preparedness and emergency
communications abilities of the amateur radio community.
•
From it's beginning back in the 1930's, Field Day has grown into the largest
on-the-air operation of the year.
2,100 clubs and individuals
across the US and Canada participate each year.
Over 31,000 individual
hams participate and over 1.4 million messages
are exchanged in the brief 24 hour period.
•
The purpose remains today as it
did in the beginning:
to demonstrate the communications
ability of the amateur radio community
in simulated emergency situations.
Field
Day offers an opportunity for operators to gain valuable experience.
