Field Day is an annual amateur radio event involving radio operators, clubs and groups nation-wide. They set up stations in the field no sooner than Friday morning, then begin practicing communications from “emergency conditions” to as many stations in the USofA as possible.
The Bitterroot Amateur Radio Club (BARC) has been doing this along with the national amateur radio community for decades. This year, our main setup will be at the Darby Loggers Day site.
Much more than the contesting aspect of the event, this year we will be focusing more on introducing radio to the people of our community – and perhaps encouraging others to gain valuable radio communications skills. At the very least, we hope our event will be informative and fun.
Please share this page and this flier for our event as widely as you can.
