Amateur Radio Field Day Is This Weekend, And You’re Invited
June 24, 2021
The Five Flags Amateur Radio Association will hold their annual field day this weekend at Ashton Brosnaham Park, during “Amateur Radio Week” in Escambia County.
ARRL (American Radio Relay League) Field Day is an opportunity for thousands of amateur radio enthusiasts throughout the U.S. and Canada to set up temporary communications stations and make contact with like-minded people. Licensed radio operators, often called “hams,” spend the weekend practicing community outreach, emergency preparedness and technical skills.
Local hams participate in providing emergency communications during hurricanes and other disasters when normal communications are disabled and during local events like triathlons, bikeathons, parades or wherever real time communications are needed.
The public is invited to stop by anytime during the 24-hour event from 1 p.m. Saturday, June 26, to 1 p.m. Sunday, June 27, at Ashton Brosnaham Park, 10370 Ashton Brosnaham Drive (just off East 10 Mile Road).
The Escambia County Commission recently proclaimed June 21-27 as “Amateur Radio Week” in the county.
