At the May meeting, there was talk of "do we need to hold a meeting in June?", immediately followed by "let's hold it at the pub!"

Field Day is ham radio's open house. Every June, more than 31,000 hams throughout North America set up temporary transmitting stations in public places to demonstrate ham radio's science, skill and service to our communities and our nation. It combines public service, emergency preparedness, community outreach, and technical skills all in a single event. Field Day has been an annual event since 1933, and remains the most popular event in ham radio.
NORAC will be setting up a station at Silver Star E-lot. Visitors are welcome to attend, however, in order to give SilverStar an indication of the number of campers, THOSE INTERESTED IN CAMPING, MUST REGISTER WITH HOWARD NO LATER THAN JUNE 20TH.
If you are interested in helping with the organization of the event, please contact Howard VA7PWF at
