  • 2024 ARRL Field Day June 22-23

    David Sarnoff Radio Club to create temporary communications hub in Franklin Township, welcoming new hams

    Setting up station in the field

    Ham radio operators from the David Sarnoff Radio Club, in the Princeton New Jersey area will be participating in a national amateur radio exercise from 2 PM on Saturday until 2PM on Sunday, June 22-23. The event is ARRL Field Day (www.arrl.org/FieldDay), an annual amateur radio activity organized since 1933 by ARRL, The National Association for Amateur Radio in the United States.

    Hams from across North America ordinarily participate in Field Day by establishing temporary ham radio
    stations in public locations to demonstrate their skill and service. Their use of radio signals, which reach
    beyond borders, bring people together while providing essential communication in the service of communities.

    Field Day highlights ham radio’s ability to work reliably under any conditions from almost any location and create an independent, wireless communications network! (this text provided by ARRL.org)

    DSRC Plans, as they evolve will be posted to this blog and to our planning page

  • Ben AC2YD’s SDR Progress Report

    At the April meeting of the DSRC Ben Cahill presented “AC2YD 4-Square Transceiver” a “work in progress” report on his Four Square SDR radio project.

    One of the radiation patterns he showed at the talk.

    He shared his “viewgraphs”… Powerpoint… screen shares… Whatever you call them, the .pdf version is available HERE

    He is two years into this project, and there’s lots more to do. We look forward to more progress reports as time goes on
