Field Day, 2:00pm Saturday, June 27th to 2:00pm on Sunday will be held at the Mosquito Lake State Park Marina in the small wooded area just south of the marina parking lot.
Antenna set up will begin around 5-6:00pm on Friday, 26th until we get them placed. Final set up on Saturday usually begins around 9:00am, especially for those needing help with radio configuration like integrating N3FJP for logging. We always appreciate volunteer club members who are available and can help with the set ups.
VISITORS WELCOME!!!
