The Winter Field Day will be held at Harry Browne Airport beginning at 11 AM on Saturday January 24, 2025. This will be a combined ARES and SVARA event and is open to all operators. Like the summer field day, we will have multiple stations operating from the airport conference room of the terminal building. We are planning to man the stations for as long as possible depending on the weather. Those interested in operation a station, please contact Ron Huss, KC8YVF at kc8yvf.
The 2026
Winter Field Day will be held from 1600 UCT 11:00 EST) Saturday
January 24, 2026 through 21:59 UCT (4:59 EST) Sunday January 25,
2026.
The object of the event is familiar to most Amateur Radio operators: set
up emergency-style communications and make as many contacts as possible
during the 24 hour period. The rules encourage as many contacts on as
many bands and modes as possible, because during a real emergency, the
most important factor is the ability to communicate, regardless of band,
mode, distance or weather.
The official rules can be found at Winter Field Day web site and the event is open to all amateurs.
NOTE: antenna setup area will be next to the west side of the airport terminal building. Will can utilize the fence post for attaching our antenna lines. Operators please keep this in mind when determining your best solution for your antenna setup.
Setup will begin at 9 AM.
We are always looking for help
setting up antennas and other equipment, so be prepared to work outside
and dress accordingly.
