Winter Field Day 25!
January 25 @ 11:00 am – January 26 @ 5:00 pm EST
Yes, Winter Field Day– two days (but not overnight) of operating in “less than ideal” conditions! Get your rigs ready. Get your gloves ready! Beginners MORE THAN WELCOME.
http://n2re.org/winter-field-day-resources has details of how to get there, and the latest planning information.
This year’s 2025 rules (see tab on this page) emphasize modes and bands, and emergency operations. We can’t use a generator at the site we selected, we can’t operate overnight, but we can put up tents, antennas, and learn lots about how to come together to communicate.
Last year we were stymied by sunset… as we only had 3 hours on Saturday and maybe 4 on Sunday morning. This year the rules extend WFD to start at 11 AM EST, so we can go on the air as soon as we have a station set up! Also, on Sunday we can operate until 5 PM, which allows us to get “6 Hours In A Row” as an objective.
