In last night's replay of the ARRL's Audi News during the net, the ARRL Magazine, "On the Air" was mentioned. Just a quick reminder to those club members who are also ARRL members, your ARRL membership includes a paper subscription of one of the Arrl's magazines but also includes a digital subscription to all four ARRL Magazines.

Digital editions of all four of the ARRL's magazines can be found at https://www.arrl.org/arrl-magazines.

Have you ever wondered about Ham Radio?

Ham radio, my grandfather did that but nobody does that anymore.

Ham radio has not been relegated to the dust bin of history. Ham radio is alive and well. Ham radio continues to be a fun and exciting hobby. Come out for Field Day 2023 and find out yourself.

What is Field Day?

fdlogo "ARRL Field Day is the single most popular on-the-air event held annually in the US and Canada. On the fourth weekend of June of each year, thousands of radio amateurs gather with their clubs, groups or simply with friends to operate from remote locations."

"Field Day is a picnic, a campout, practice for emergencies, an informal contest and, most of all, FUN!"

Come out to Henry Frank Park in Mishawaka on Field Day to see the exciting things you can do with ham radio. You will even have a chance to talk on the radio yourself.

Field Day starts at 2pm on Saturday, June 24th and ends at 2pm on Sunday, June 25th.
