Field Day is coming up fast! We really hope you’ll join us; it’s going to be a new experience at our new, air-conditioned location.
There’s really not much else on our calendar for the next couple of weeks. We’re getting ready for Field Day, arranging for time off from work, and checking the radios we bought at Ham-Com.
