We will be setting up antennas on Friday, June 26 at 10:00 AM. All help is appreciated. Field Day setup will begin at 9:00AM on Saturday, June 27th. Lunch for those arriving early and setting up the station will be around noon. The fun begins at 2:00PM.

Don’t forget to bring an appetizer, side dish or dessert and your headphones.
